Remarks
(1)The deviation in wall thickness means the ratio of the difference between the maximum and the minimum of the measured thickness of a wall in the same section to the specified wall thickness. This shall not be applied to pipes under 5.6mm in wall thickness.

In both cases, the same value【 0.5 % shall be applied as the tolerances. The diameter (D) and the length of circumference (l) shall be calculated reversibly from the following formula.
l =ヰ ·  D Where ヰ =3.1416
