OATEY 60715 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is this Oatey Hercules cement approved for potable water lines?
Yes. The 60715 cement is rated for potable water, conduit and DWV applications, and it complies with NSF/ANSI 61 health effects requirements. It also meets ASTM D2564 (PVC), D2235 (ABS) and F493 (CPVC), which are the three standards an inspector will look for on a water or drain line.
2) What temperature can I use PVC cement at on a cold job site?
Recommended application range for the Hercules 60715 is 40 to 110 degrees F (4 to 43 degrees C). Below 40 F the solvent flashes off too slowly and cure times stretch out, so if you are working in winter either warm the pipe and the can or move to an enclosed area. The cured joint carries a maximum use temperature of 60 degrees C.
3) Will this cement meet low-VOC rules in California?
It will. The Hercules 60715 is a low VOC solvent cement that meets the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) Rule 1168/316A and BAAQMD Method 40 requirements, which are the limits that govern cement sold and used in the Los Angeles basin and the Bay Area. All Hercules solvent cement and primer products are also certified to UL Greenguard Gold, which matters on schools and healthcare projects chasing indoor air quality credits.
4) Should I use medium body or regular body cement for 3 and 4 inch drain pipe?
Medium body, which is what the Hercules 60715 is. Regular body cement is thin and best on small diameter tight-fit joints; medium body carries enough gap-filling solids to handle larger DWV fittings, and this one is rated up to 6 inch diameter with interference fit. Above 6 inch, or on loose-fit large diameter pressure pipe, step up to a heavy body cement instead.
5) What color does the Hercules 60715 cement dry, and will it show on exposed pipe?
It is a milky white multipurpose cement that goes on clear rather than purple or blue, so it leaves far less visible residue on exposed or finished pipe runs than a tinted cement does. If your inspector requires a visibly colored cement to prove the joint was made, a clear cement is the wrong choice for that job.
6) How much cement is in the Oatey 60715 can?
16 fluid ounces, part number 60715, with the dauber built into the lid. Net weight of the filled can is listed at 1.258 and the volume at 0.037, so it ships as a single pint-size can rather than a case.
