OATEY 30876 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can Oatey 30876 heavy duty clear cement be used on potable water lines, not just drain pipe?
Yes. The Oatey 30876 clear PVC cement is rated for DWV, pressure pipe, potable water and electrical applications, and it complies with NSF/ANSI 61 health effects requirements for potable water contact. It also meets ASTM D2564, the standard spec for PVC solvent cement.
2) What size PVC pipe can I solvent weld with Oatey 30876 heavy duty cement?
It handles all schedules and classes of PVC pipe and fittings with interference fit, up to 12 inch diameter on pressure pipe and up to 18 inch on non-pressure (drain, waste and vent) pipe. That upper range is what separates a heavy duty cement from a regular-bodied one, which tops out on much smaller diameters.
3) Is it too cold outside to use PVC cement? What temperature range does Oatey 30876 need?
Oatey lists a recommended application temperature of 40F to 110F (4C to 43C) for this clear PVC cement. Below 40F the solvent flashes off too slowly and the joint cure is unreliable, so on a cold morning either warm the material and the fittings or wait for the day to come up. The finished joint is rated to a maximum use temperature of 60C.
4) Will Oatey 30876 clear cement work on CPVC or ABS pipe?
No. This is a PVC-only solvent cement. It will not make a code-compliant joint on ABS drain pipe, and CPVC hot water lines need a CPVC-specific cement rated for that material's temperature. For an ABS-to-PVC transition you need a listed transition cement, not this one.
5) Is this cement low VOC enough for California or a SCAQMD jurisdiction?
Yes. This Oatey clear cement is a low VOC formulation meeting the California South Coast Air Quality Management District 1168/316A requirements or BAAQMD Method 40. It is also certified to UL GREENGUARD Gold, which matters on schools, healthcare and LEED jobs where indoor air quality emissions are specified.
6) Why use clear PVC cement instead of the blue or gray kind?
Clear leaves no visible color on the fitting, which is the usual call for exposed or finished work where a blue smear would show. Functionally the Oatey 30876 clear heavy duty still meets ASTM D2564 and NSF/ANSI 61 like the colored bodies. One note: some inspectors prefer a colored cement because the joint is easier to verify visually, so check local preference on inspected potable work.
7) How much does a 16 oz can of Oatey 30876 PVC cement weigh for shipping?
The 16 oz (pint) can has a listed product weight of 1.202 lb and a volume of 0.034 cubic feet. Solvent cement is a flammable liquid, so it ships under hazmat rules, which is worth knowing when you are building out a multi-can MRO order.
