- Application/Uses
- Ideal for use in cold weather applications.
- Recommended for Commercial and Large diameter thermoplastic piping systems, specifically CPVC Sch. 40 / 80.
- Removes surface dirt, grease and grime as well as softens the pipe surface to allow a fast, secure solvent weld.
- For use in areas where plumbing code calls for verification that a primer has been used.
- Directions For Use
Store and use at temperatures between -15°f and 110°f. At temperatures outside of this range, special care must be taken to prepare good joints and prevent exposure to solvents. Stir or shake before using; if jelly-like, don’t use. Do not thin. Handle with care! Will stain most materials and surfaces.
- Cut pipe ends square, chamfer and clean pipe ends.
- Check dry fit of pipe and fitting. Pipe should easily go 1/3 of the way into the fitting. If pipe bottoms, it should be snug.
- Use a suitable applicator at least 1/2 the size of the pipe diameter. For larger size pipe systems use a natural bristle brush or roller.
- Apply thoroughly to inside of the fitting socket and to the outside surface of the pipe to the depth of the fitting. Apply a second coat of primer to fitting socket.
- While primer is still wet use an appropriate solvent cement for the pipe being joined. Follow application instructions from cement can. Do not test with air.
