How to Use SWR Pipe Rubber Lubricant in only 4 steps
Step 1: Prepare the Surfaces
- Ensure that the ends of the PVC pipes and fittings are clean and free from dirt, dust, or grease. A clean surface allows for better adhesion and sealing.
Step 2: Apply the Lubricant
- If using a spray bottle, give it a good shake before application.
- Spray or apply a generous amount of rubber lubricant to both the pipe and the fitting. Ensure complete coverage for optimal performance.
Step 3: Assemble the Joint
- Quickly and carefully insert the lubricated pipe into the fitting. A slight twisting motion can help distribute the lubricant evenly.
- Make sure the pipe is aligned properly within the fitting to ensure a secure fit.
Step 4: Allow to Set
- After assembling the joint, let it rest for a few minutes to allow the lubricant to settle and the bond to strengthen before putting any stress on the joint.
Safety Precautions
- Always work in a well-ventilated area to avoid inhaling fumes from the lubricant.
- Wear gloves and goggles to protect your skin and eyes from contact with the lubricant.
Store the lubricant in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources to maintain its effectiveness.
