GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
TYPE N PVC Pipe Cement is formulated as a high bond strength, quick setting, PVC pipe cement in all non
pressure applications for bonding PVC pipe and fittings. Available in blue and clear.\
APPLICATION:
TYPE N is ideal for non-pressure applications including the installation of plumbing, electrical, sewerage,
drainage and storm water applications. Detailed directions on making solvent cemented joints are printed on the
container label. For complete jointing instructions refer to AS2032. It is highly recommended that the installer review the
instructions supplied by the pipe and fitting manufacturer. NOTE: TYPE N solvent cements must never be used in a PVC
system using or being tested by compressed air or gases.
Preparation
1. Priming fluids shall be used to prepare the jointing surface prior to solvent cement application.
2. Ensure pipe is cut square and remove burrs.
3. To ensure correct assembly of joint, mark pipe at a distance equal to full socket depth.
4. Test joint for dry fit.
5. Ensure the pipes and fittings are clean and dry by removing any moisture or dirt with a clean rag prior to
applying primer or pipe cements.
6. Clean pipe and inside of socket using a clean cloth freshly moistened with Primer(Priming Fluid). This is
essential to ensure a satisfactory bond.
Making the joint
1. Apply PVC Pipe Cement Type N in full even coats to both surfaces. Firstly, to the inside of socket, then to
external surface of pipe end.
2. Immediately assemble, pushing the pipe home to the full depth of the socket.
3. Hold bonded joint in position for at least 30 seconds.
4. Do not disturb for 5 minutes.
5. Allow 24 hours curing before testing
6. For pipe with a diameter over 100mm, we recommend to either apply one coat and assemble immediately or
apply a second coat of PVC cement. For a slowest setting product, contact us.

SHELF LIFE :
2 years in tightly sealed containers. The date code of manufacture is stamped on the container. Stability of the product is
limited by the evaporation of the solvent when the container is opened. Evaporation of solvent will cause the cement to
thicken and reduce its effectiveness. Adding of thinners to change viscosity is not recommended and may significantly
change the properties of the cement.
QUALITY ASSURANCE:
TYPE N is carefully evaluated to assure that consistent high quality is maintained. Fourier transform infrared
spectroscopy, gas chromatography, and additional in depth testing ensures each batch is manufactured to exacting standards.
A batch identification code is stamped on each can and assures traceability of all materials and processes used in
manufacturing this solvent cement.
