OATEY 31014 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What pipe sizes can Oatey 31014 clear PVC cement handle?
Oatey 31014 regular body clear cement covers all schedules and classes of PVC pipe and fittings up to 4 in. for Schedule 40, and up to 2 in. for Schedule 80 with interference fit. Above those sizes you need a medium or heavy body cement instead, because regular body doesn't carry enough filler to bridge the gap on larger joints.
2) Can I use Oatey 31014 on CPVC or ABS pipe?
No. The 31014 is a PVC-only solvent cement. It welds PVC pipe and fittings; CPVC needs a CPVC-specific cement and ABS needs ABS cement. Using it on the wrong material gives you a joint that will not hold.
3) Is this PVC cement approved for potable water lines?
Yes. Oatey 31014 meets ASTM D2564 and complies with NSF/ANSI 61 health effects requirements, and it is rated for DWV, pressure pipe, potable water and electrical conduit work.
4) How cold can it be when I glue PVC with Oatey 31014?
Application range is 40 F to 110 F (4 C to 43 C). Below 40 F the solvent won't flash off and cure properly, so on a cold jobsite either warm the work area or keep the can and the pipe indoors until you are ready to make the joint.
5) Does this cement meet low-VOC rules for California jobs?
It does. The 31014 is a low-VOC solvent cement meeting South Coast AQMD Rule 1168/316A or BAAQMD Method 40 requirements, so it is usable on jobs in those air districts. It is also certified to UL Greenguard Gold, which matters on schools and healthcare specs.
6) Do I need a separate primer, or does clear cement go on bare?
Clear cement like the 31014 is often chosen where a purple primer line would be visible, but many plumbing codes and inspectors still require a primer on PVC pressure joints. Check the local code for the job. The can ships with a dauber for applying the cement.
7) What is the maximum service temperature for a joint made with Oatey 31014?
Maximum use temperature is 60 C. That is the joint in service, not the application window, which is a separate 4 C to 43 C range for making the joint. PVC systems are cold-water and drainage work; hot water lines call for CPVC and a CPVC cement.
8) Why choose clear PVC cement over the purple or gray kinds?
Clear leaves no colored ring on the fitting, which is why it gets used on exposed piping, fixture work and anywhere the joint will be seen. Gray and other colored cements are the same chemistry class but leave a visible mark. Where an inspector wants visual proof of primer, a purple primer under clear cement is the usual compromise. The Oatey 31014 is a regular body, fast setting clear cement.
9) Can I use this cement on electrical PVC conduit?
Yes, electrical applications are among the listed uses for the 31014, alongside DWV, pressure pipe and potable water. Same 4 in. Sch. 40 size ceiling applies.
10) How big is the 31014 can and how much does it weigh for shipping?
It is a 16 oz. can, listed at 1.17 lb and 0.034 in volume. That size suits a service truck or a punch-list run rather than a full rough-in, where crews usually carry quarts.
