What happens here

Immediately after priming, apply PVC cement to the same primed surfaces: a uniform layer on the outside of the new flexible PVC pipe and a thin, even coat on the inside of the rigid PVC hub. Working quickly, firmly push the new flexible PVC pipe into the hub, giving it a quarter-turn twist to distribute the cement evenly and ensure a strong, watertight seal. Hold the pipe in place for several seconds to allow the cement to set and prevent the pipe from pushing out.

Goal: Securely bond the new flexible PVC pipe to the rigid PVC hub.

Tools and materials

  • Gloves — Protecting hands from primer and cement
  • PVC Cement — Creating a permanent chemical bond between the PVC pipe and hub
