Description

FloPlast Solvent Cement 125ml is the small tin of cement for making Solvent Weld joints on plastic waste pipe and fittings. The cement softens both the pipe surface and the inside of the fitting socket, and the two fuse together as it sets.

Making a joint with FloPlast Solvent Cement 125ml

Cut the pipe square and take off the burr. Dry fit first so you know the joint lines up. Then brush cement onto the outside of the pipe and the inside of the socket, push the pipe fully home with a slight twist and hold it for a few seconds. Leave the joint alone for a few minutes before handling it, and give it several hours before you run water through. The tin label gives the exact times.

The 125ml size suits a single sink, basin or bath waste, because a small tin stays fresh. On a bigger job, the 250ml tin saves running out halfway.

Other glues are listed under Adhesives.

Common Questions

What is FloPlast solvent cement used for? It bonds solvent weld waste pipe to its fittings, making a firm permanent joint. The 125ml SC125 tin is a handy size for a repair or a short run.

How do I use FloPlast solvent cement? Cut the pipe square, clean and deburr it, then brush cement onto the pipe end and inside the fitting. Push them together straight away and hold for a few seconds.

How long does FloPlast solvent cement take to dry? It grabs within seconds, but it needs longer to cure fully before the pipe is used. Follow the drying times printed on the tin.

Can I use it on FloPlast ABS waste pipe? Yes, the SC125 is FloPlast’s own cement for their solvent weld waste system.

Can you solvent weld push-fit pipe? No, push-fit waste is normally polypropylene, which solvent cement won’t bond. Use push-fit fittings with that pipe.

Should I get the 125ml or 250ml tin? It’s the same cement either way. The 125ml suits a small job, while the 250ml makes more sense for a bigger run.
