Overview

ISO 5172:2006/Amd 2:2015 is an amendment to the international standard specifying requirements for gas welding equipment, particularly blowpipes used in gas welding, heating, and cutting operations. This amendment aligns the standard with updated gas letter codes from ISO 10225, ensuring accurate marking and safety information on welding tools. Developed by ISO Technical Committee 44 (Welding and allied processes), Subcommittee SC 8, this standard amendment supports uniformity, safety, and compatibility in industrial gas welding equipment globally.

Key Topics

  • Gas Welding Blowpipes: Specifications and tests critical to maintaining high quality and consistent performance during gas welding, heating, and cutting.
  • Amendment Focus: Updates related to the marking system of gas welders, replacing previous tables with references to Section 6.8, in line with ISO 10225.
  • Marking Requirements: Introduction of gas letter codes according to ISO 10225 when the chemical name or symbol cannot be marked directly on equipment.
  • System of Marking: Adjustments to Annex J that clarify marking symbols, distinguishing between fuel gas and oxygen/compressed air for improved safety and usability.

Applications

  • Industrial Welding: Ensures blowpipes are accurately labeled and tested, reducing operational risks in manufacturing, construction, and repair tasks involving gas welding and cutting.
  • Safety Compliance: Supports compliance with international safety standards by mandating clear and consistent equipment markings, helping prevent gas mixture errors.
  • Equipment Manufacturing: Provides guidance for manufacturers to update labeling protocols based on the latest gas letter coding system, enhancing global interoperability.
  • Quality Assurance: Facilitates rigorous testing and certification processes that boost confidence in equipment reliability and safety performance.

Related Standards

  • ISO 10225: Gas welding equipment - Marking for equipment used for gas welding, cutting, and allied processes - Provides the updated gas letter codes referenced in this amendment.
  • ISO/TC 44 Series: Broad standards covering welding and allied processes, including safety requirements, equipment specifications, and quality control.
  • ISO/IEC Directives Parts 1 & 2: Guidelines governing the development, editorial rules, and maintenance of International Standards like ISO 5172.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
