BIS CERTIFICATION FOR BARWIRE WRAPPED STEEL CYLINDER PIPES WITH MORTAR LINING AND COATING INCLUDING IS 15155

Published Date: April 09, 2025 4 min Read

BIS certification is mandatory for Barwire Wrapped Steel Cylinder Pipes with Mortar Lining and Coating as per IS 15155:2020. This standard ensures that the pipes, found widely used in high-pressure water distribution and transmission systems, adhere to high mechanical and performance standards. Certification assures that pipes are made from premium-quality material, are suitably wrapped, and have protective mortar linings and coatings to resist internal pressures and weather conditions. Conformity to IS 15155:2020 signifies a manufacturer's dedication to the provision of high-quality and long-lasting pipeline fittings for infrastructure and utility applications.

IS 15155:2020 – Barwire Wrapped Steel Cylinder Pipes With Mortar Lining And Coating Including

This specification prescribes requirements for barwire wrapping reinforced steel cylinder pipes with mortar lining and coating, mostly utilized in pressure pipeline systems. It addresses technical specifications such as steel cylinder grade, density of barwire wrapping, type and thickness of mortar coating and lining, and dimensional tolerances. The standard also specifies hydrostatic testing methods, inspection procedures, and quality control parameters to guarantee long-term serviceability and resistance to corrosion and mechanical stress. Pipes certified under IS 15155:2020 are required to have high-performance requirements for strength, leak tightness, and durability under harsh operating conditions.

Benefits of BIS Certification for Barwire Wrapped Steel Cylinder Pipes

BIS certification under IS 15155:2020 guarantees the conformity of the product to domestically accepted safety and performance standards, which improves its credibility with project consultants and procurement organizations. For manufacturers, it provides regulatory approval, brand equity, and improved opportunities in government and large-scale private infrastructure projects tenders. For end users, it guarantees access to pipes that are dimensionally correct, pressure-resistant, and maintain durable corrosion protection. This reduces risks of failure, minimizes maintenance costs, and ensures consistent water delivery in critical pipeline networks.
