Description
PVC primer is a specialized solution used in conjunction with PVC cement for preparing PVC (polyvinyl chloride) pipes and fittings before bonding. It is typically a purple-colored liquid that is applied to the surfaces to be joined prior to applying PVC cement. The primary purpose of PVC primer is to clean and prime the PVC surfaces, ensuring optimal adhesion and bonding. PVC primer works by softening and cleaning the PVC material, removing any dirt, oil, or debris that could hinder the bonding process. It also helps to improve the flow and penetration of the PVC cement into the PVC surfaces, enhancing the strength and durability of the bond. PVC primer is an essential component in PVC pipe installations and is commonly used in plumbing, irrigation, and construction applications.
