Pipe Cement for Plastic Pipe
Create strong, leakproof joints between unthreaded pipe and fittings. Cleaner and primer (sold separately) are recommended to prepare pipe for adhesion.
Cement for CPVC plastic and for PVC plastic meets NSF/ANSI 61 safety standards for use on drinking water systems. It is also suitable for drain, waste, and vent pipes.

Underground Snap-Lock Polyethylene Pipe for Drain, Waste, and Vent
- For Use With: Water
- Specifications Met: ASTM F667
Pipe has a snap-together design that allows you to quickly connect to fittings with no cement required. It is typically used in gravity-flow drainage applications. Made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), it stands up to freeze/thaw cycles and resists corrosion and stress cracking. Pipe is corrugated inside and out for flexibility. It meets ASTM F667 specifications and testing requirements for material quality as well as soil conservation service (SCS) standards for use in underground drain lines.Perforated pipe has slits along the entire length that allow drainage to be dispersed.
Female/male ends connect to female or male snap-lock fittings. Male ends allow you to join two lengths of pipe without the need for a fitting.
Warning: Never use plastic pipe fittings and pipe with compressed air or gas. Do not expose pipe to direct sunlight.

Underground PVC Pipe for Drain, Waste, and Vent
- For Use With: Water
- Max. Temperature: 140° F
- Specifications Met: ASTM D2729
This pipe has thinner walls than Schedule 40 pipe, so it’s lighter in weight and has more space on the inside for high-flow applications, such as underground gravity-flow sewer and storm drainage lines. Pipe is PVC, which has good corrosion resistance. Connect to unthreaded female socket-connect fittings using a PVC primer and cement (also known as solvent weld). Pipe meets ASTM D2729 specifications and testing requirements for material quality.
Perforated pipe has holes along the side of the pipe to disperse drainage and prevent water from pooling.
10-ft. long pipe has one expanded end that connects to another length of pipe with a standard end without needing a fitting. Push the standard pipe end into the expanded pipe end and secure with PVC primer and cement.
Warning: Never use plastic pipe fittings and pipe with compressed air or gas.
