🛠️ Installation Guide
- Pipe Preparation
- Cut the pipe squarely.
- Remove burrs and clean the pipe end.
- Dry Fit
- Insert the end cap to check alignment.
- Apply Solvent Cement
- Use UPVC-compatible solvent cement.
- Apply evenly on both the pipe end and inside the cap.
- Assembly
- Push the cap fully onto the pipe end.
- Hold for a few seconds to ensure bonding.
- Curing
- Allow 24 hours for full curing before pressure testing.
💡 Usage
- Water Supply Systems: Seals unused pipe ends to prevent leakage.
- Sewerage & Drainage: Blocks pipe ends in sewer lines or ventilation systems.
- Temporary Closures: Used during construction or maintenance to cap pipes.
- Industrial Applications: Suitable for chemical-resistant piping systems.
⚠️ Key Considerations & Risks
- Pressure Limitations: SCH 40 is not suitable for very high-pressure applications.
- Temperature Sensitivity: UPVC softens above 60°C; avoid hot water lines.
- Proper Cementing: Poor solvent welding can cause leaks.
- UV Exposure: Prolonged sunlight may degrade UPVC; consider protective coatings outdoors.
