This British Standard specifies requirements for the raw materials and properties of the finished profile after manufacture for white PVC-U extruded hollow profiles with heat welded corner joints for plastics windows manufactured from materials type B.
Methods of test are given in Appendix A to Appendix K.
NOTE 1 Plastics windows made from PVC-U extruded hollow profiles are specified in BS 7412 and requirements for white PVC-U hollow profiles for plastics windows manufactured from materials type A are specified in BS 7413.
