The second refers to the establishment of requirements that must be met by threaded fittings made of malleable cast iron for general use and for the conduction of fluids and gases up to the pressure and temperature limits. This standard is applicable for use in the industrial sector, specifically in petrochemical, construction, mining and manufacturing where piping systems are required for the conduction of liquids and gases under pressure.
These technical standards were approved by Directorial Resolution No. 023-2024-INACAL/DN.
