CPVC pipes and fittings are usually connected with glue, here are some points to pay attention to when connecting:
Clean the surface:
Before applying glue, it is important to ensure that the surface of the pipe and fittings are very clean and smooth. Clean with sandpaper or detergent. Once you have perfectly clean surfaces, take your time and wait for them to dry completely.IFAN Facebook Website:www.facebook.com,IFAN factory has 30+ years manufacture experience supporting color /size customization support Free Samples.
Let the glue evenly distribute:
Mix the glue in a certain proportion and apply it to the pipes and fittings. Before you embed pipes and fittings together, you must ensure that the glue is evenly distributed over their surfaces. This can ensure that they can be tightly connected together, and improve the viscosity and stability of the glue.

Control the connection time:
After the pipes and fittings are embedded together, the timing of the connection needs to be mastered. If the connection time is too short, the glue will not have time to bond together. If the connection is left on for too long, the glue will cure, making the connection weak or impossible to separate. The correct connection time should be about 5 minutes.
Prevent too much chewing:
When applying glue, we must maintain the correct amount. If too much glue is applied, there will be insufficient space between the pipe and fittings, the inability to fully insert, and even water leakage. Therefore, when applying glue, it is necessary to master the amount of application.
Material characteristics of CPVC glue
High-temperature resistance:
CPVC glue can be used in high-temperature environments and can withstand temperatures up to 93 degrees Celsius. This is unmatched by ordinary PVC glue.
Chemical stability:
The chemical stability of CPVC glue is very good, and there will be no quality problems due to long service life, seasonal changes, etc., and it is very suitable for long-term use.
Fast curing:
The curing speed of CPVC glue is very fast, and it can be basically cured in only 5 minutes after connection.
Good elasticity:
After the CPVC glue is connected, it has good elasticity and can adapt to certain mechanical vibrations.
Strong pressure resistance:
After the CPVC glue is connected, it has good pressure resistance and can adapt to high-strength mechanical extrusion force.
In short, CPVC glue is very convenient, durable, economical, and practical for connecting pipes and fittings, and is widely used in industrial production. When using, you only need to pay attention to the above-mentioned precautions when connecting, so that the pipes and fittings can be connected very firmly without water leakage and other quality problems.
