Application

PREPARATION :
Pipe assemblies must be properly prepared :
- Sand down the surface of the parts to be assembled (male end and socket) with sandpaper (never used a file, rasp or sawblade for this purpose)
- Clean the parts to be assembled with a clean cloth or brush moistened with our SOLVANT N°1

GLUING :
Carefully spread a thin uniform layer of Saniplas EC without excess inside the socket and on the complete outer surface of the male end, ending in the lengthwise direction.
When application of the glue is finished, be careful to put down the brush in a clean place.
Since the adhesive dries rapidly, immediately assemble the two parts by pushing them together straight, without any twisting motion.
Eliminate the excess of glue from the outside of the assembly with a clean cloth.
It is necessary in all cases to allow the assembly to dry for 10 minutes before handling to prevent any relative movement between the assembled parts.
Wait minimum for 30 minutes before placing the pipe assembly underground.

REMARKS :
- To prevent excessive volativle solvent evaporation, always tightly close the can or drum between uses.
- Prevent any ingress of water (rainwater or other).
- After drying, a waterpoofing test should be carried out (DTU 60.1)

CLEANING :
SOLVANT N°1
