UPVC Solvent Cement – Unmatched Bonding Strength
UPVC Solvent Cement is a high-performance adhesive specifically formulated for joining UPVC pipes and fittings. This solvent cement ensures strong, leak-proof joints, making it an ideal choice for water supply systems operating under various temperature and pressure conditions. It is widely used in applications such as:
Drain, waste, and vent systems
Sewer and gas pipelines
Electrical conduit systems
High-pressure plumbing installations
For superior bonding and durability, it is recommended to use Plastochem UPVC Solvent Cement in combination with Primer and Cleaner. It is crucial not to add any thinner or additives, as this may compromise joint integrity.

Why Choose UPVC Solvent Cement for High-Pressure Drainage Systems?
High-pressure drainage systems are subjected to significant stress due to increased water flow, wastewater disposal, or industrial applications. To maintain system integrity, selecting the right bonding solution is critical.
UPVC solvent cement plays a vital role in providing leak-proof, high-strength seals between pipes and fittings. It ensures:
Superior Bonding Strength: Prevents leaks, making it ideal for high-pressure environments.
Chemical Resistance: Withstands corrosive chemicals commonly found in wastewater.
Easy Application: Reduces labor time and installation costs.
Long-Lasting Durability: Offers years of reliable performance with minimal maintenance.
The Role of Solvent Cements in Leak-Proof Piping Systems
Solvent cement acts as a chemical welding adhesive, permanently bonding plastic pipes and fittings into a unified structure. This ensures long-term durability and leak resistance, making it indispensable for high-pressure and industrial applications.
Benefits of Plastochem UPVC Solvent Cement:
Fast Bonding: Quick setting time ensures strong joints within minutes.
Pressure Resistance: Handles high stress without compromising performance.
Minimal Maintenance: Reduces the need for frequent repairs and inspections.
For optimal results, it is recommended to use solvent cement that complies with ASTM F493 standards. The application process involves cutting, priming, applying cement, assembling, and curing the joint for maximum strength.

How to Properly Use Solvent Cement
Step-by-Step Application Guide:
Cut the Pipe: Ensure a square cut and remove burrs for a clean joint.
Clean & Dry the Surface: Use a dry cloth to remove any debris.
Check Dry Fit: The pipe should fit snugly into the fitting.
Apply Primer & Cement: Use a dauber, swab, or brush for even application.
Assemble the Joint: Insert the pipe into the fitting with a twist motion for uniform bonding.
Hold Firmly: Maintain pressure for 60-90 seconds to avoid push-out.
Curing Time: Allow 15 minutes for handling and up to 24 hours for full strength.
For larger pipe sizes, longer cure times may be required. Do not disturb joints during the initial setting period.
