Product Overview

Weld-On 790 Multi-Purpose Cement is a professional-grade solvent adhesive engineered for the installation of PVC and CPVC piping systems in plumbing, industrial, and mechanical applications. This medium-bodied, low-VOC compound delivers a strong, permanent bond with fast set and cure times, allowing for efficient assembly of piping systems up to 6 inches in diameter (Schedule 80 through 4 inches). The ketone-based formulation provides consistent solvent penetration and adhesion under standard field conditions. Weld-On 790 is approved for use on both pressure and non-pressure systems when installed in compliance with applicable codes and standards.

• Use the included brush applicator to apply an even, full coat of cement to both pipe and fitting socket.
• Assemble immediately with a quarter-turn twist to ensure uniform solvent distribution and bonding.
• Hold joint in position for several seconds to prevent separation; remove excess cement.
• Allow appropriate set and cure times before pressure testing in accordance with Weld-On cure time charts.
• Do not dilute or thin cement; store in original, tightly sealed container away from ignition sources.
