Technical Specification for the WaterMark Certification Scheme

This Technical Specification sets out requirements for plastics bodied fittings with intermediate flexible joints for sewer or drain applications.

(i) Scope expansion to include fittings from existing limitation of DN225 to DN300

(ii) Deletion of compression strength and addition of tear strength within Table 5.1.

(iii) Additional marking requirements included.

(iv) General update in several areas due to changes to referenced standards since the initial issue (2016)

(v) Inclusion of compliance Tables A3 and A4
