Flamisol supplies ASTM D2564 compliant PVC solvent cements and ASTM F656 primers for industrial PVC pipe joining applications. The product line covers the standard grade range required by U.S. plumbing codes and industrial specifications: clear heavy body and gray PVC pressure cements, purple primer for surface preparation, and transition cement for ABS-to-PVC joints under ASTM D3138. Low-VOC formulations are available for California and other VOC-restricted markets.
| Grade | Standard | Primary Use |
|---|---|---|
| Clear Heavy Body PVC Cement | ASTM D2564 | PVC pressure pipe and fittings up to 6″; clean-finish applications |
| Gray PVC Cement | ASTM D2564 | PVC pressure pipe up to 12″; gap-filling on loose-fit joints |
| Purple Primer | ASTM F656 | Joint surface preparation; visual indicator for code inspection |
| Transition Cement (Green) | ASTM D3138 | ABS-to-PVC joints in DWV plumbing systems |
| Low-VOC PVC Cement | ASTM D2564 + CARB/SCAQMD | California and VOC-restricted markets; same joint performance, low-VOC solvent blend |
Flamisol’s PVC solvent cement portfolio aligns with the full ASTM standards stack covering PVC pipe joining for pressure and DWV applications:
| Application | Recommended Grade | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| PVC pressure pipe (water, irrigation) | Clear or gray + primer | Code-compliant pressure systems require primer per ASTM F656 |
| Spa and pool manufacturing | Clear heavy body | Clean-finish appearance for visible joint applications |
| Commercial plumbing (DWV) | Gray or transition | Transition cement required at ABS-to-PVC joints |
| Industrial process piping | Gray heavy body + primer | Larger diameter systems benefit from gap-filling body |
| California-bound product | Low-VOC formulation | CARB/SCAQMD compliance limits: 510 g/L PVC cement, 550 g/L primer |
| Conduit and electrical PVC | Clear or gray | Standard PVC cement; check local electrical code requirements |
California Air Resources Board (CARB) and South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) limit VOC content in plastic pipe cements. Standard PVC cement is limited to 510 g/L, primers to 550 g/L, and ABS cement to 325 g/L. Flamisol supplies both standard and low-VOC formulations:
