Approved by the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF), Novablend 6088 and 6089 PVC compounds were recently introduced for use in pressure fittings and other water distribution system applications. Both have a specific gravity of 1.38 and comply with ANSI/NSF standards 14 and 61 for plastic piping components; in addition, they both meet ASTM D-1784 Cell Classification 12454-B.
Of the two opaque grades, Novablend 6088 has a higher tensile strength (7150 psi) and notched Izod impact (1.5 ft-lb/in). Novablend 6089 offers higher tensile modulus (470,000 psi) and flex modulus (446,000 psi).
