1. Have you reviewed all of the instructions on the cement container label?

2. Are you using the proper cement for the job...for the type and size of pipe and fittings being joined?

3. Do you need to take special precautions because of unusual weather conditions?

4. Do you have sufficient manpower? Do you need more help to maintain proper alignment and to bottom pipe in fitting?

5. Do you have the proper tools and sufficient quantities of Weld-On cements and primer, and is cement in good condition?

6. Remember, primer is NOT to be used on ABS pipe or fittings.

7. Be sure to use a large enough applicator to quickly spread cement generously on pipe and fittings. Then assemble immediately.

8. Avoid puddling excess cement inside the socket, especially on thin wall, bell end PVC pipe and ABS in any schedule.

9. Be aware at all times of good safety practices. Solvent cements for pipe and fittings are flammable, so there should be no smoking or other sources of heat or flame in working or storage areas. Be sure to work only in a well ventilated space and avoid unnecessary skin contact with all solvents. More detailed safety information is available from us.

10. Take advantage of our free literature on joining techniques. We offer a booklet on joining PVC pipe and fittings, videos, a cartoon booklet illustrating joining and installation methods and individual bulletins.

11. Finally, we remind you to INSIST ON WELD-ON!
