What to Know Before Choosing CPVC Solvent Cement

cpvc solvent cement


At Plastochem, we understand how important it is to use the right CPVC solvent cement for a secure and long-lasting plumbing system. Before selecting any product, keep the following points in mind:

  • Use CPVC-specific cement: Not all cements are the same. Make sure the one you choose is specially formulated for CPVC pipes and fittings. Our Plastochem CPVC Solvent Cement is designed for strong, leak-proof bonding.

  • Compatibility matters: Check if the cement matches the grade of CPVC compound used in your system. Plastochem’s cement is engineered to work with high-quality CPVC materials.

  • Curing and drying time: Consider how fast the cement sets. Faster curing means quicker installation and reduced downtime.

  • Storage and shelf life: Always store cement in a cool, dry place and check the expiry date to ensure product performance.

  • Follow safety instructions: For best results, always follow the application and safety guidelines provided by the manufacturer.

How to Apply CPVC Solvent Cement (Step-by-Step)

Plastochem CPVC solvent cement is easy to use. Here’s how to apply it properly:

  1. Prepare the surface: Ensure both the pipe and fitting are clean and dry.

  2. Apply the cement: Use an applicator to coat both surfaces evenly with Plastochem CPVC solvent cement.

  3. Join immediately: Push the pipe and fitting together with a slight twist to ensure a strong grip.

  4. Hold firmly: Keep them in place for a few seconds so the joint can set.

  5. Let it cure: Allow proper drying time before testing or pressurizing the system.

Thanks to the strength and flexibility of CPVC, this process works well even for high-pressure plumbing systems.
