CAN ULC-S513-11 (R2018) PDF Download

CAN ULC-S513-11 (R2018) is a standard that specifies the requirements for threaded couplings used with 38 mm and 65 mm fire hoses in fire protection applications. The purpose of this standard is to ensure that the couplings meet the necessary criteria for compatibility, durability, and performance.

The standard establishes guidelines for the design, materials, and dimensions of the threaded couplings. It outlines the necessary features such as the thread type, pitch, and size to ensure proper connection and compatibility with fire hoses. Additionally, it sets requirements for the materials used in the manufacturing of the couplings, ensuring they meet the necessary strength and corrosion resistance criteria.

Furthermore, the standard includes performance and testing requirements to ensure the reliability of the threaded couplings. It specifies various tests that the couplings need to go through, such as pressure testing and mechanical performance testing, to ensure they can withstand the demands of fire protection applications.
