Defines the nominal outside diameters for inch-based thermoplastics pipes for conveying fluids in pressure and non-pressure applications. In addition, it defines nominal pressure ratings, minimum required strengths and overall service coefficients for thermoplastics pipes for pressure applications.

This part of ISO 161 specifies the nominal outside diameters for inch-based thermoplastics pipes for the conveyance of fluids in pressure and non-pressure applications. It also specifies nominal pressure ratings, minimum required strengths and overall service (design) coefficients for thermoplastics pipes for pressure applications.

It is applicable to smooth thermoplastics pipes of constant circular cross-section along the whole length of the pipe, whatever their method of manufacture or material of construction.
