<p>ISO 16010:2005 specifies requirements for elastomeric materials used in seals for supply pipes and fittings, ancillaries and valves at operating temperatures in general from -5 °C up to 50 °C and in special cases from -15 °C up to 50 °C, for the following:</p>
<p>a) general applications:</p>
<ul><li>gaseous fuel [manufactured, natural and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in the gaseous phase],</li><li>hydrocarbon fluids with an aromatic content up to 30 % (by volume), including LPG in the liquid phase;</li></ul>
<p>b) special applications:</p>
<ul><li>materials suitable for carrying gaseous fuels containing gas condensates and hydrocarbon fluids of unrestricted aromatic content.</li></ul>
<p>General requirements for finished joint seals are also given.</p>
<p>This International Standard is applicable to joint seals for all pipeline materials, including iron, steel, copper and plastics.</p>
<p>It is not applicable to the following:</p>
<ul><li>seals made from cellular materials;</li><li>seals with enclosed voids as part of their design;</li><li>seals required to be resistant to flame or to thermal stress;</li><li>seals which contain splices joining pre-vulcanized profile ends.</li></ul>
