How to fix joint cementing procedure for plastic vent pipe: step by step

1. Measure and cut the vent pipe to length.
2. Deburr and chamfer the pipe end so no ridges remove cement from the socket.
3. Clean and dry the surfaces to be joined.
4. Test fit and mark the fitting depth on the outside of the pipe.
5. Apply a liberal coat of PVC primer (for ABS use a clean dry cloth) to the socket and pipe end to the marked depth. Do not let primer dry before cementing.
6. Apply solvent cement lightly and evenly inside the socket, then a second coat to the pipe end.
7. While both surfaces are wet, push the pipe fully into the socket within 20 seconds. Give PVC a 1/4 turn while inserting, but do not turn ABS or cellular core pipe.
8. Wipe excess cement at the socket. A good joint shows a bead all the way around.
9. Handle joints carefully until fully set.
