Title
Standard Specification for Primers for Use in Solvent Cement Joints of Poly(Vinyl Chloride) (PVC) Plastic Pipe and Fittings
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Jul 1, 2008
Scope:
This specification covers requirements for primers for use with
poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) pipe and fittings that are to be joined
by PVC solvent cements meeting the requirements of Specification D
2564.
These primers are used in pressure and nonpressure applications
with plain end pipe and either socket-type fittings or bell end
pipe. These primers prepare the surface of pipe and fittings before
the application of solvent cement. The primer's effect on the set
and cure time of the joint is dependent on the cement, pipe size,
application method, temperature, and humidity.
Aprocedure for using the primer with cement is given in Practice
D 2855.
The text of this specification references notes, footnotes, and
appendixes which provide explanatory material. These notes and
footnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be
considered as requirements of the specification.
The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the
standard. The values given in parentheses are for information
only.
The following safety hazards caveat pertains only to the test
methods portion, Section 6, of this specification: This
standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if
any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user
of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health
practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations
prior to use.
*A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this
standard.
