ASTM D2444 Impact Resistance Plastic/PVC pipe and fitting falling weight impact testing machine. 

It is used to determine the energy required to break or rupture test specimens such as pipe, sheet, laminates, composites, ceramics, and nonferrous metals for material and component evaluation to international testing methods such as ISO6603, ISO3127, ASTMD2444, and UL 651 to name a few.

Round the Clock Method – Lengths of pipe from a batch or production run are subjected to blows from a known mass that falls from a specified height as per test standards ISO3127 & EN744.

Staircase Method – Lengths of pipe are subjected to blows from a known mass and shape but is dropped from differing heights depending on the results of each blow as per test standard EN1411.
