Black Swan PVC Solvent Cement 236ml is a fast-set, high-strength solvent cement designed for joining PVC pipe and fittings. It’s a reliable choice for plumbing and maintenance work where you need a secure joint and a clean finish.
PVC solvent cement works by softening the surfaces of the pipe and fitting so they fuse together as the joint cures. This makes it suitable for permanent PVC joints when used correctly and allowed to cure fully before the system is put back into service.
Typical uses
- Joining PVC pipe and fittings during plumbing installations
- Repairs to existing PVC pipework (where a solvent-weld joint is required)
- General trade and DIY maintenance work using PVC fittings
Key features
- 236ml tin – a practical size for repairs and small-to-medium jobs
- Fast set – helps reduce waiting time between stages of the job
- Brush in lid – controlled application with less mess
- For PVC – intended for PVC pipe and fittings
Application (best practice)
- Ensure the pipe and fitting are clean, dry and correctly sized.
- Apply an even coat to the fitting and pipe end.
- Push fully home and hold briefly to prevent “push-out”.
- Allow adequate cure time before running water or pressure testing.
