1996, metric dimensions were added as an independent but equal standard to the inch units.

Following approval by the Standards Committee and AS!, this revision to the 1991 edition o"
this Standard was approved as an American #ational Standard by A#S$ on %ecember 16, 1996,
with the new designation AS! &16.11'1996.
$n ())), the Standards Committee, AS!, and A#S$ approved an addenda to this Standard
to remove partial compliance "ittings and nonstandard material requirements. %ue to an AS!
policy change concerning the publishing o" addenda, the intended addenda changes have been
incorporated into this &16.11'())1 edition.
Suggestions "or improvement o" this Standard are welcome. *hey should be addressed to the
Secretary, AS! &16 Standards Committee, *hree +ar, Avenue, #ew -or,, #- 1))16.
*he Committee incorporated threaded street elbow requirements into the standard starting in

COES&O$)E$CE 'IT! T!E B16 COMMITTEE
General" AS! Standards are developed and maintained with the intent to represent the
consensus o" concerned interests. As such, users o" this Standard may interact with the Committee
by requesting interpretations, proposing revisions, and attending Committee meetings. Correspondence
should be addressed to1
Secretary, &16 Standards Committee
*he American Society o" echanical !ngineers
*hree +ar, Avenue

&ro/osing evisions" 2evisions are made periodically to the Standard to incorporate changes
that appear necessary or desirable, as demonstrated by the e3perience gained "rom the application
o" the Standard. Approved revisions will be published periodically.
*he Committee welcomes proposals "or revisions to this Standard. Such proposals should be
as speci"ic as possible, citing the paragraph number4s5, the proposed wording, and a detailed
description o" the reasons "or the proposal, including any pertinent documentation.
Inter/retations" 6pon request, the &16 Committee will render an interpretation o" any requirement
o" the Standard. $nterpretations can only be rendered in response to a written request sent
to the Secretary o" the &16 Standards Committee.
*he request "or interpretation should be clear and unambiguous. $t is "urther recommended
that the inquirer submit his7her request in the "ollowing "ormat1
Sub8ect1 Cite the applicable paragraph number4s5 and the topic o" the inquiry.
!dition1 Cite the applicable edition o" the Standard "or which the interpretation is
being requested.
9uestion1 +hrase the question as a request "or an interpretation o" a speci"ic requirement
suitable "or general understanding and use, not as a request "or an approval
o" a proprietary design or situation. *he inquirer may also include any plans
or drawings, which are necessary to e3plain the question: however, they
should not contain proprietary names or in"ormation.
2equests that are not in this "ormat will be rewritten in this "ormat by the Committee prior
to being answered, which may inadvertently change the intent o" the original request.
AS! procedures provide "or reconsideration o" any interpretation when or i" additional
in"ormation that might a""ect an interpretation is available. Further, persons aggrieved by an
interpretation may appeal to the cogni;ant AS! Committee or Subcommittee. AS! does not
<approve,= <certi"y,= <rate,= or <endorse= any item, construction, proprietary device, or activity.
Attending Co((ittee Meetings" *he &16 Standards Committee regularly holds meetings, which
are open to the public. +ersons wishing to attend any meeting should contact the Secretary o"
