Pressure Pipe/Fitting/Appurtenance Sizes used in Malaysia

2 min read

This post provides a full, implementable reference for Malaysia’s pressure pipe, fitting, and appurtenance based on MS ISO 2531 / EN 545, MS EN 12201, MS 628, and MS 1965 practice.

Nomenclature: DN stands for Nominal Diameter.

Summary #

This list consolidates all practical Malaysian pipe, fitting, and appurtenance sizes into one ready-to-use reference. It’s meant for designers, catalog builders, and engineers who need accuracy without chasing scattered data tables.

All values reflect MS ISO 2531 / EN 545, MS EN 12201, MS 628, and MS 1965 practice — the real standards that govern Malaysia’s water infrastructure.
