  • ABS Solvent CementPIP-012 is the VESDA ABS solvent cement for solvent-welding aspirating pipe.
  • 250 ml SizeThe cement is a 250 ml solvent-weld adhesive.
  • Joins Pipe and FittingsIt joins pipe and may also be used to take sockets, socket unions, elbows, bends, tees and end caps onto the pipe.
  • Viscous LiquidThe cement is a viscous liquid, colourless to pale yellow, with a ketone odour.
  • Flash Point -21 °CFlash point is -21 °C, with an autoignition temperature of 212 °C and a viscosity of 12 500 mPa s at 20 °C.
  • Extremely FlammableThe liquid and its vapours are flammable and the product is extremely flammable, so it must be kept away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources.

  • System Integrity RequirementAspirating pipe system integrity can be affected if the VESDA ABS solvent cement is not used.

Description

Solvent-weld cement joins ABS aspirating pipe, and PIP-012 is the 250 ml ABS solvent cement for that work. It bonds pipe to pipe, and may also be used to take fittings such as sockets, socket unions, elbows, bends, tees and end caps onto the pipe.

The liquid and its vapours are flammable and the product is extremely flammable, so work only outdoors or in a well-ventilated place, keep it clear of heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources, and wear protective clothing, gloves and eye and face protection. It causes serious eye irritation, may cause drowsiness or dizziness, and contains epoxy resin (average molecular weight ≤ 700), which may provoke an allergic reaction. Where the airborne concentration exceeds 10 mg/m3, dust protection is needed. Water spray, dry powder or carbon dioxide are the extinguishing media, and thermal decomposition or combustion can release carbon oxides and other toxic gases or vapours.

PIP-012 is the VESDA ABS solvent cement, a viscous solvent-weld adhesive in a 250 ml size, used to join aspirating pipe and pipe fittings. It is a viscous liquid, colourless to pale yellow, with a ketone odour, and it may also be used to join fittings such as sockets, socket unions, elbows, bends, tees and end caps to the pipe.

The liquid flashes at -21 °C and has an autoignition temperature of 212 °C, with lower and upper flammability limits of 1,2 % and 11,8 %. Viscosity is 12 500 mPa s at 20 °C, and the cement is not miscible with water. It stays stable at normal ambient temperatures and under the recommended transport and storage conditions; strong oxidising agents, strong acids and heat are what to keep it away from.

Store it in its original container, tightly closed, and dispose of contents and container under current national regulations. Pipe network integrity can be affected if VESDA ABS solvent cement is not used. Keep it away from strong oxidising agents and strong acids.

Handling calls for care: the liquid and its vapours are flammable, the product is extremely flammable, it causes serious eye irritation and may cause drowsiness or dizziness, and it contains epoxy resin (average molecular weight ≤ 700), which may provoke an allergic reaction. Dust protection must be used where the concentration in air exceeds 10 mg/m3. Use it only outdoors or in well-ventilated places, wear protective clothing, gloves and eye and face protection, and keep it away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. Thermal decomposition or combustion can release carbon oxides and other toxic gases or vapours. Aspirating pipe system integrity can suffer if the VESDA ABS solvent cement is not used.
