CPVC Solvent Cement
Plastochem CPVC Solvent Cement is a heavy-bodied, slow-setting adhesive engineered for high-strength bonding of CPVC pipes and fittings. Its thick, viscous consistency ensures excellent gap-filling properties, making it particularly effective for large-diameter pipes where precise sealing is crucial.
Advantages:
High-Pressure Durability: Specifically formulated for hot and cold water systems.
Extended Cure Time: Allows for proper setting, ensuring long-term strength.
Versatile Application: Suitable for both small and large-diameter CPVC piping systems.
Compliance with Global Standards: Certified by NSF (USA) for potable water use.
Why Choose Plastochem Solvent Cements for High-Pressure Drainage Systems?
1. Superior Bonding Strength
Plastochem solvent cements create a robust, leak-proof bond that withstands high pressure, preventing costly water loss and system failures.
2. Chemical Resistance
Resistant to harsh chemicals commonly found in wastewater, including acids and alkalis, ensuring long-lasting performance in industrial environments.
3. Pressure Resistance
Capable of withstanding significant stress, making it ideal for high-pressure drainage systems.
4. Cost-Effective & Low Maintenance
Once applied, Plastochem solvent cement requires minimal upkeep, reducing maintenance costs and ensuring long-term reliability.
Application Instructions
Prepare the Surface: Cut the pipe to the required length, remove burrs, and clean both the outer pipe surface and inner socket.
Check Fit: Ensure the pipe fits snugly into the fitting. Use Plastochem Primer for better adhesion if required.
Apply Cement: Spread an even layer of Plastochem Solvent Cement using a brush. Apply a second coat for deeper sockets.
Join Pipes: Insert the pipe into the fitting while rotating slightly to evenly distribute the cement. Hold for 30-90 seconds.
Curing Time: Allow 15 minutes for handling strength and a longer cure time for larger pipes or higher pressures.
