FAQs
What is the correct way to apply solvent cement?
Apply a generous, even coat of solvent cement to both the inside of the fitting and the outside of the pipe. Insert the pipe fully into the fitting and twist it slightly to ensure the cement is evenly distributed. Hold for a few seconds while the cement begins to set.
How long should I wait for the solvent weld to cure?
Curing time varies depending on the solvent cement used. Always refer to the manufacturer's instructions for the specific product. Generally, allow at least 24 hours before testing the joint.
Can I use this fitting with other pipe materials?
No, this fitting is specifically designed for use with 110mm (4") PVC-U soil pipes. Using it with other materials may result in leaks or a failed connection.
What should I do if a joint leaks?
If a joint leaks, the best course of action is to cut out the fitting and the section of pipe. Clean and prepare the pipe and fitting again, and re-weld the connection following the correct procedure. Ensure the pipe is fully inserted and the correct solvent cement is used.
What are the certifications for this product?
The Davant Solvent Soil 92 Double Socket Bend meets EN1329-1 & EN1566-1 certifications, ensuring it meets specific quality and safety standards.
How can I prevent leaks?
Thoroughly clean all surfaces before applying solvent cement. Use the correct solvent cement for PVC-U pipes. Apply solvent cement evenly and correctly. Insert the pipe fully and hold it in place. Allow sufficient curing time before use.
Where can I use this fitting?
It can be used in residential, commercial and industrial applications. This includes waste water and soil drainage systems.
Troubleshooting
Joint leaks after installation.
Ensure that the solvent weld was properly applied, that the pipe was fully inserted, and that the curing time was observed. If leaks persist, cut out the joint and re-weld it, ensuring proper technique.
Difficulty in inserting the pipe into the fitting.
Ensure both the pipe and the fitting are clean. Apply more solvent cement to provide lubrication. Check for any obstructions within the fitting.
The fitting cracks after installation.
This could be due to excessive force during installation or extreme temperatures. Replace the fitting and ensure proper handling and operating temperatures.
Solvent weld is not setting.
Check the expiry date of the solvent cement. Ensure it is compatible with the PVC-U material. Use the correct application technique according to manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure correct ambient temperature.
Pros and Cons
