  1. Măsurați și tăiați: If necessary, cut the PVC pipe to the desired length using a PVC cutter. Ensure cuts are straight and clean.
  2. Deburr and Chamfer: Use a deburring tool to remove any burrs from the inside and outside edges of the cut pipe. Chamfer the outside edge slightly to aid in assembly.
  3. Potrivire uscată: Temporarily assemble the nipple with the connecting pipes and fittings to ensure proper alignment and fit. Mark the insertion depth on the pipe.
  4. Aplicați Primer: Apply a liberal coat of PVC primer to the outside of the pipe end and the inside of the fitting socket. Allow the primer to soften the surfaces for the recommended time (refer to primer manufacturer's instructions).
  5. Aplicați cimentul: While the primer is still wet, apply an even, generous coat of PVC cement to the primed surfaces of both the pipe and the fitting socket.
  6. Asambla: Immediately insert the pipe into the fitting socket, rotating the pipe a quarter turn (90 degrees) to ensure even distribution of cement. Hold the joint firmly for at least 30 seconds to prevent the pipe from pushing out.
  7. Timp de vindecare: Allow the joint to cure for the recommended time before handling or pressurizing the system. Cure times vary based on temperature, humidity, and pipe size (refer to cement manufacturer's instructions).

  • Verify chemical compatibility of the fluid being conveyed with PVC material to prevent degradation.
  • Avoid exposing the PVC system to direct sunlight for prolonged periods without UV protection, as this can degrade the material over time.
