Plastochem Plus CPVC Solvent Cement: The Ideal Choice for Reliable Plumbing Solutions

Plastochem Plus UPVC and CPVC Solvent Cement is a specialized adhesive designed for joining Plastochem Plus CPVC pipes and fittings. It ensures a robust, leak-free, and durable bond, forming a long-lasting, reliable plumbing system. This solvent cement is carefully formulated with solvents and resins that soften and melt the CPVC materials during the bonding process. As the solvent evaporates, a chemical bond is formed between the components, ensuring a strong and permanent connection.

CPVC is a versatile material that can handle high-pressure applications, making it ideal for a variety of plumbing needs. Its non-toxicity, non-flammability, and low-maintenance nature ensure a safe, durable installation that meets industry standards.

Advantages of CPVC Solvent Cement

CPVC solvent cement offers several advantages for plumbing systems:

Quick and Efficient: The cement creates a homogenous, leak-proof joint by chemically welding the surfaces together.
Enhanced Durability: The resulting bond is resistant to water, heat, pressure, and chemicals, ensuring a long-lasting and reliable plumbing system.
Cost-Effective: While solvent cement is a small part of the overall plumbing system, it plays a crucial role in the quality of the installation.
Sustainability: CPVC solvent cement contributes to the sustainability of plumbing systems by ensuring durable and long-lasting connections.

Types of CPVC Solvent Cement

There are two primary types of CPVC solvent cement:

One-Step Cement: This type of cement can be used directly without the need for a primer. It is suitable for water applications and pipe sizes up to 2 inches.
Two-Step Cement: This requires the use of a primer before applying the solvent cement. It is recommended for pipes larger than 2 ½ inches and is used in industrial chemical applications.

CPVC solvent cements are available in various sizes to suit different needs, ranging from small tubes to larger cans with dauber-type applicators for ease of use.
