(250ml)

Fast, permanent watertight solvent weld

Solvent cement for the permanent jointing of PVC-U and ABS thermoplastic pipework. It creates a high-strength, watertight bond for non-pressure applications, primarily for soil and waste systems. The fast-acting formula begins to fuse in seconds, with handling strength achieved in just 10 minutes.

Supplied in a 250ml bottle with an integral cap-applicator brush for quick, clean application. It is formulated for systems manufactured to EN 1329, EN 1401, and EN 1455 standards—covering PVC-U soil and waste, underground drainage, and ABS soil and waste systems. Further, it can seal gaps up to 0.8mm, ensuring a reliable watertight bond—even on imperfect fits.

Features & Benefits

Permanent, watertight bond – High-strength solvent weld for a secure seal on PVC-U and ABS pipework
Fast-acting formula – Begins to fuse in seconds, with handling strength in 10 minutes
Gap-filling performance – Effectively seals joints with gaps of up to 0.8mm
Standards compliant – Compatible with systems to EN 1329 (BS 4514), EN 1401 (BS 4660), and EN 1455 (BS 5255)
Ready to use – No mixing or other preparation required
Integrated brush – Built-in cap applicator ensures clean, fast, and precise jointing

Did you know? Solvent cement doesn’t just stick pipes together—it fuses them. The formula chemically dissolves the surface of the PVC-U or ABS plastic, fusing the two parts into a single, continuous piece. Once the solvent evaporates, it leaves behind a permanent, watertight joint that is often stronger than the pipe itself.

Fitting & Usage

Suitable for the permanent solvent welding of PVC-U and ABS non-pressure pipe systems

Preparation

Ensure pipework and fittings are clean, dry, and free from grease before application
Cut pipe cleanly using a plastic pipe cutter where possible
If cut with a saw, thoroughly deburr and smooth all edges before jointing
Dry-fit components beforehand to confirm alignment and orientation

Application

Apply an even layer of cement to the outside of the pipe and inside of the fitting using the integral brush
Join immediately, fully inserting the pipe into the fitting while twisting slightly to evenly distribute the solvent cement, but
Maintain correct fitting orientation during assembly
Hold in position for at least 10 seconds, then wipe away any excess
Leave joints undisturbed for at least 10 minutes before handling

Storage & Safety

Store upright in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from ignition sources
Do not dilute or decant
Contains highly flammable solvents — use only in well-ventilated areas
