OATEY 32168 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do I need to prime CPVC pipe before using Oatey 32168 Orange Lava cement?
No separate primer step. Oatey 32168 Orange Lava is a one-step orange cement with a dauber that primes and solvent welds CPVC in a single application. It melts the pipe surface quickly to weld the joint, so primer is not required. That is the main reason it gets used on cut-ins where you cannot afford the extra dwell time.
2) Can I use Orange Lava cement on a hot water line that is still under pressure for a cut-in repair?
That is exactly what it is built for. Oatey 32168 is a fast-set cement for pressure, potable water cut-in and repair work, rated for commercial hot and cold water systems up to 200 F / 93 C. It is intended for cut-ins where downtime is limited.
3) What size CPVC pipe will Oatey 32168 cement handle?
Up to 6 inch diameter CPVC pipe and fittings with interference fit. Above that size, or for pipe that is not CPVC, you need a different solvent cement.
4) Is Orange Lava cement approved for FlowGuard Gold and Corzan CPVC systems?
Yes. Oatey 32168 is listed for commercial hot and cold water systems including FlowGuard Gold and Corzan CPVC piping systems.
5) Can I use this orange cement on PVC DWV or ABS pipe?
No. The 32168 Orange Lava formulation is a CPVC cement, meeting ASTM F493 (CPVC solvent cement) and D2846 (CPVC hot and cold water systems). For PVC or ABS you need the cement formulated for that material.
6) How much cement is in the Oatey 32168 can and how much pipe will it cover?
It is a 32 oz (quart) can with an applicator dauber in the lid, shipping weight 2.35 lb. The quart size is the usual choice for crews doing repeated cut-ins or larger diameter CPVC up to 6 inch, where a smaller can gets used up fast.
