Substrate preparation:

• The pipe ends must be cut at right angles, bevelled and deburred (see illustration). If the pipe bevel is missing or not correct, it is not possible to achieve a permanently tight connection.
• Fine cleaning is carried out with Tangit PVC-U/C/ABS cleaner.

Processing:

• Stir Tangit well before use. The adhesive should slowly flow off a stick held at an angle, forming a kind of adhesive plume. Apply an even, closed layer of adhesive in the axial direction, first in the socket and then on the pipe.
• Apply a thin coat of Tangit to the socket to avoid the formation of a bulge in the pipe; apply liberally to the end of the pipe. According to DIN EN 14814, tolerances of up to +0.6 mm can be bridged with Tangit PVC-U.
• Immediately push the pipe and socket together as far as they will go or to the full socket depth without mutual twisting / tilting and hold in place for a few seconds until the adhesive has set.
• Remove excess adhesive with cleaning paper immediately after assembly. Due to the rapid setting of the adhesive, the parts to be joined must be pushed together within 4 minutes of the beginning of the adhesive application.
• Due to the lower amount of adhesive when using Tangit tubes, the pipe dimensions to be glued should not be larger than DN 80 here.
• For dimensions from DN 80, 2 people should apply the adhesive to the pipe and sleeve at the same time. The open time of Tangit, i.e. the time from the beginning of the adhesive application until the parts are joined, depends on the film thickness of the adhesive and/or the ambient temperature.

A notice:

• Before commissioning, the pipelines must be flushed thoroughly in order to remove any solvent vapors that may still be present.
• Tangit PVC-U is ready to use and must not be diluted under any circumstances.
• Tangit PVC-U and Tangit PVC-U/C/ABS cleaners act on PVC-U. Therefore, keep pipes and fittings away from any spilled adhesive/cleaner.
• Close containers that are not in use immediately to prevent solvent loss and thickening. Any adhesive skin that may be present must be removed. Wipe off the thickened adhesive sticking to the brush with dry non-woven paper. Cleaned brushes must be dry before reuse.
