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.
• Remove excess
cement from the
exterior. A prop-
erly made joint
will show a con-
tinuous bead of
cement around
the perimeter. If
voids appear suf-
ficient cement
may not have
been applied and
joint failure may
result.
• Align all piping system components properly without
strain. Do not bend or pull pipe into position after being
solvent welded.
