Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 6224 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 45, Rubber and rubber products, Subcommittee
SC 1, Hoses (rubber and plastics).
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 6224:2005), which has been technically revised.
The main changes are as follows:
—     Table 1 includes four additional inside diameters (4 mm, 6 mm, 8 mm and 9 mm) for each type of hose;
—
                                iTeh STANDARD PREVIEW
      in Table 3, the requirement for the minimum adhesion between components has been raised from
      1,5 kN/m to 2,0 kN/m;          (standards.iteh.ai)
—     annexes giving schedules for type, routine and production testing have been added.

Thermoplastics hoses, textile-reinforced, for general-purpose
water applications — Specification
WARNING — Persons using this International Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory
practice. This standard does not purport to address all the safety problems, if any, associated with
its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate health and safety practices and to
ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions.
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies the requirements for general-purpose textile-reinforced thermoplastics
water-discharge hoses.
Three types of hose are specified according to their operating duty requirements, i.e. their ambient and water
temperature ranges:
—    ambient temperatures: −10 °C to +60 °C;
—    water temperature during operation: 0 °C to +60 °C.
NOTE         At water temperatures above 23 °C and particularly above 40 °C, the maximum working pressure will be reduced.
                             iTeh STANDARD PREVIEW
These hoses are not intended to be used for conveyance of potable (drinking) water, for washing-machine
                                  (standards.iteh.ai)
inlets, as fire-fighting hoses, for special agricultural machines or as gardening hoses for the consumer market.

7.2     Finished hoses
When tested at 23 °C (standard laboratory temperature) and at 60 °C by the appropriate method specified in
ISO 1402, the physical properties of finished hoses shall conform to the values specified in Table 3.
8 Type, routine and production testing
Type tests are those tests carried out to determine that the hose design and method of manufacture meet the

full requirements of this International Standard.
                                           (standards.iteh.ai)
Routine tests are those tests carried out on every manufactured length of finished hose.
The type tests and routine tests which shall be carried out are given in Annex A.
