Applicator Types
Primers and cements are extremely flammable and may be
explosive. Do not store or use near open flame or elevated
temperatures, which may result in injury or death.
• Solvent fumes created during the joining process are
heavier than air and may be trapped in newly installed
piping systems.
• Ignition of the solvent vapors caused by spark or flame
may result in injury or death from explosion or fire.
• Read and obey all manufacturers' warnings and any
instructions pertaining to primers and cements.
• Provide adequate ventilation to reduce fire hazard and
to minimize inhalation of solvent vapors when working
with cements, primers and new piping systems.

Solvent Cements
NOTICE: Aerosol or spray-on type primers/solvent cements are not recommended. The practice of aggressively scouring the pipe
and fittings with both primer and solvent cement is an integral part of the joining process. Not working the primer or solvent
cement into the pipe or fitting could cause potential system failure or property damage.
