Installation Procedure

1. Ensure pipe ends are clean, free of debris, and properly chamfered. 2. Apply appropriate polycarbonate solvent cement to both the pipe end and fitting socket. 3. Quickly insert the pipe into the fitting with a slight twisting motion until it bottoms out. 4. Hold firmly for 30 seconds to prevent push-out, then allow sufficient cure time per cement manufacturer's instructions before pressurizing.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect solvent cement not specifically formulated for polycarbonate.Always use a solvent cement specifically designed for polycarbonate piping systems to ensure a proper, chemically bonded joint.
Insufficient cure time before system pressurization.Adhere strictly to the solvent cement manufacturer's recommended cure times for handling and full service pressure, especially in temperature-sensitive applications.

Common Applications

  • Chemical processing and transfer
  • High-purity water systems
  • Industrial instrumentation lines
  • Food and beverage processing
  • Laboratory applications

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not use with solvents or chemicals not explicitly listed as compatible with polycarbonate.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during installation when using solvent cements.
  • Avoid exposure to UV radiation for extended periods unless the material is specifically UV-stabilized.
