NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard (Second Revision) which is identical with ISO 6134 : 2017 ‘Rubber hoses and hose assemblies for saturated steam - Specification’ issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on recommendation of the Rubber and Rubber Products Sectional Committee and approval of the Petroleum, Coal and Related Products Division Council.

This standard was published in 1983. In the first version, requirements of change in length at proof pressure, maximum twist at proof pressure, characteristics of hydrostatic test and hoses of 45.00 mm, 63.00 mm and 80.00 mm bore diameter have been included. Adhesion requirement and test method, construction and method of test for steam resistance have been modified. Types of hoses have been reduced from four to three.
