204 Heavy Duty Cement

E-Z Weld Heavy Duty Clear is a medium bodied medium set PVC Solvent Cement. It is slightly cloudy but dries clear. It is formulated to provide good gap filling properties. This product was formulated to provide cost effective cement for joining PVC pipes & fittings for up to 6” diameter, interference fit

 

Application

This cement is good for joining Schedule 40 & 80 PVC pipes and fittings up to 6” diameter interference fit.  It is approved for cold water pressure applications. It may also be used for non-pressure application such as drain, waste, vent, sewer, gas, conduit etc. up to 8’ diameter interference fit. For superior joint use with E-Z Weld Primer, Purple (No.212) or Clear (No. 211). Never add thinner or additive. Never use the cement if it is stringy, lumpy or jelly like.
