3. Preparación
Proper preparation is crucial for a strong, leak-free joint. Follow these steps before applying the primer:
- Corte de tubería: Cut the pipe square using a suitable pipe cutter.
- Desbarbar y biselar: Remove all burrs from the inside and outside edges of the pipe. Chamfer the end of the pipe to facilitate insertion into the fitting.
- Superficies limpias: Ensure all pipe and fitting surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dirt, grease, oil, and moisture. Use a clean, dry cloth to wipe surfaces.
- Ajuste en seco: Dry fit the pipe and fitting to ensure proper alignment and an interference fit. The pipe should enter the fitting socket easily by 1/3 to 2/3 of the socket depth.
4. Instrucciones de aplicación
Apply Rectorseal PR-1L primer and solvent cement according to the following procedure:
- Aplicar imprimación a la tubería: Using a natural bristle brush or dauber, apply a liberal and uniform coat of PR-1L primer to the pipe surface, covering an area equal to the depth of the fitting socket. Ensure the entire surface is wetted and purple in color.
- Aplicar imprimación al accesorio: Immediately apply a liberal and uniform coat of PR-1L primer to the inside of the fitting socket. Ensure complete coverage.
- Aplicar cemento solvente: While the primer is still wet (do not allow primer to dry), immediately apply the appropriate PVC or CPVC solvent cement to both the primed pipe end and the primed inside of the fitting socket. Follow the solvent cement manufacturer's instructions for application.
- Assemble Joint: Quickly insert the pipe into the fitting socket, twisting a quarter turn until the pipe bottoms out. Hold the joint together firmly for at least 30 seconds to ensure initial set and prevent the pipe from backing out.
- Eliminar el exceso: Wipe off any excess cement from the joint using a clean cloth.
- Tiempo de curado: Allow adequate cure time before handling or pressure testing the joint. Refer to the solvent cement manufacturer's recommendations for specific cure times, which vary based on pipe size, temperature, and humidity.
5. Cleanup and Storage
Limpieza:
Clean tools and spills immediately with an appropriate solvent cleaner. Ensure proper ventilation during cleanup.
