Abstract

To provide a ball-passing test piece for a drain pipe that prevents an identification medium from falling and facilitates avoiding water damage.SOLUTION: A test piece T comprises a spherical buoyant piece T1, and a spherical and hollow first container T2 that covers an entire circumference of the buoyant piece T1. The buoyant piece T1 includes: a weight T11 that is attached such that the center of gravity of the whole is lowered; and a sheet-like identification medium T12 that is attached so as to be located higher than the center of gravity. The first container T2 includes a dewatering hole T21 for draining water that has flooded inside.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
