Oatey Company 31129 Cpvc Pipe Cement 8 Oz Medium Body

Product Description

The OATEY COMPANY 31129 is an 8-ounce, orange, medium-bodied CPVC pipe cement formulated for solvent-welding CPVC pipe and fittings in potable water pressure systems. The orange color identifies it as a CPVC-specific product, helping installers avoid cross-use with PVC cements. This cement is rated for CPVC pipe and fittings up to 6 inches in diameter and is engineered to meet the demands of copper tube size (CTS) Schedule 80 applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters use this product when making permanent, pressure-rated joints on CPVC hot and cold water distribution systems.

This cement is intended for use on CPVC pipe and fittings commonly found in residential and light commercial potable water pressure piping installations. It is suited for CTS Schedule 80 CPVC systems, including supply lines, branch lines, and fixture connections. The medium-body formulation provides adequate working time for fitting alignment while still achieving a reliable solvent-weld bond on standard-clearance joints up to 6 inches in diameter.
