OATEY 30806 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can Oatey 30806 purple primer be used on both PVC and CPVC pipe?
Yes. Oatey 30806 is a dual-purpose purple primer and cleaner for both PVC and CPVC pipe and fittings, and it works on any diameter thanks to the dauber built into the lid. It strips surface dirt, oils and other contaminants off the pipe and softens the surface before cement goes on.
2) What temperature can I apply Oatey 30806 primer in on a winter job site?
The application window for the 30806 purple primer runs from -15 F (-26 C) up to 110 F (43 C), so it can be brushed on in freezing conditions. Once the joint is made, the maximum use temperature is 93 C.
3) Is Oatey 30806 low VOC and legal in California air quality districts?
It is a low VOC primer/cleaner formulated to meet the South Coast Air Quality Management District rule 1171/M24, which is the strictest VOC limit in the country for solvent cement products. Oatey solvent cements and primers are also certified to UL Greenguard Gold.
4) Is this primer safe for potable water lines?
Oatey 30806 complies with NSF/ANSI 61 health effects requirements, the standard that governs materials in contact with drinking water. Note the product is catalogued for DWV pipe applications as well, so it covers both drain lines and CPVC water piping.
5) How is a primer/cleaner different from a straight purple primer?
The 30806 is a combination product: it cleans contaminants off the pipe and primes it in one step, and it is deliberately less aggressive than a primer-only formulation. On heavy schedule pipe or where the code language calls specifically for primer, check that your local inspector accepts a combination primer/cleaner before you buy a case.
6) What size can is the Oatey 30806 and does it come with an applicator?
The 30806 holds 0.066 cubic feet of volume at a shipping weight of 1.95 pounds, and the dauber is built into the lid, so no separate brush is needed to apply it.
7) What is the manufacturer part number for Oatey purple primer/cleaner?
The part number is Oatey 30806, sold as a single model with no size or finish options to select.
