The ASTM D2290 standard determines the comparative apparent tensile strength of most plastic products using a split disk test fixture tested under defined conditions and test machine speed. Reinforced thermosetting resin pipe may be tested by this standard regardless of fabrication method. Extruded and molded thermoplastic piping is also covered by this test. Data from this test are useful for research and development, quality control specification and design.
