Joint Cementing Procedure

All cementing of joints should be done according to the
specifications outlined in ASTM D 2855.
CAUTION
DANGER OF EXPLOSION!
Fumes from PVC glue may ignite during system check.
Allow fumes to dissipate for at least 5 minutes before
placing unit into operation.
1. Measure and cut vent pipe to desired length.
2. Debur and chamfer end of pipe, removing any ridges or
rough edges. If end is not chamfered, edge of pipe
may remove cement from fitting socket and result in a
leaking joint.
3. Clean and dry surfaces to be joined.
4. Test fit joint and mark depth of fitting on outside of pipe.
5. Uniformly apply a liberal coat of PVC primer for PVC or
use a clean dry cloth for ABS to clean inside socket
surface of fitting and male end of pipe to depth of fitting
socket.

of fitting socket. A properly made joint will show a bead
around its entire perimeter. Any gaps may indicate a
defective assembly due to insufficient solvent.
