Bsc Preferred 18099-24 Pvc Solvent Cement 1/4 Pint

Product Description

The BSC PREFERRED 18099-24 is a clear, regular-bodied, fast-setting PVC solvent cement formulated for joining PVC pressure pipe and fittings. It is engineered for Schedule 40 pipe up to 4-inch diameter and Schedule 80 pipe up to 2-inch diameter. The cement meets ASTM D-2564 and carries NSF certification for use in potable water, sewer, and drain-waste-vent (DWV) systems. Its low-VOC formula complies with California SCAQMD Rule 1168/316A and BAAQMD Method 40, making it suitable for use in regulated air-quality districts. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this product in both new construction and repair applications.

This cement is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations where PVC pipe and fittings are used in pressure, sewer, or DWV configurations. The fast-setting formula supports efficient workflow in time-sensitive repair or rough-in scenarios. Its NSF certification makes it appropriate for potable water lines where code compliance is required. The low-VOC rating addresses environmental and occupational air-quality requirements on regulated job sites, including those in California and other states with strict VOC limits.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or locally adopted equivalents. Before applying solvent cement, ensure pipe ends are cut square, deburred, and cleaned with the appropriate PVC primer where required by code. Apply cement evenly to both the pipe end and the fitting socket, then push and rotate the joint to seat fully. Allow the joint to cure for the manufacturer-specified time before restoring pressure to the line.
