E-Z Weld Multipurpose is medium bodied, fast - set solvent cement. This cement was formulated for the joining of PVC, CPVC and ABS (or any combination) pipes and fittings. This product is ideal when the kind of pipes and fittings in the application is unknown.

                   

 

Application

This cement is good for joining PVC, CPVC & ABS (or any combination) pipes and fittings up to 6” diameter interference fit. This cement may be used on hot (up to 180 degree Fahrenheit) & cold water pressure systems. It may also be used for non-pressure applications 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 (211). Do not add thinner or additive. Do not use the cement if it is stringy or jelly like.

 

 

Always follow instructions on the label.

Storage temperature:                              45 degree F to 110 degree F.

CURE TIME GUIDE:

 

The ASTM has developed the following schedule and may be used as a guide (for relative humidity 60% or less. Sch. 40 size pipe.) eg. a 2” pipe size joint made at 55 degrees F, 50% Relative Humidity and a test pressure of 100 psi would require a cure time of 4 hrs.
