Technical Guide - Set/Cure Time



Joining Corzan Pipe and Fittings - Solvent Cementing
  • Recommended Set Times

    After a joint is assembled using solvent cement, it should not be disturbed for a period of time to allow for proper "setting" of the newly prepared joint. Recommended set times are as follows
Ambient to 1 1/2" 4"to 10"to
Temperature 1 1/4" to3" 8" 12"
60°to 110°F 15 min 30 min 1 hr 2 hr
40°to 60°F 1 hr 2 hr 4 hr 8 hr
0°to 40°F 3 hr 6 hr 12 hr 24 hr



  • Recommended Cure Times

    After a joint is assembled using solvent cement, the cement must be allowed to properly "cure" before the piping system is pressurized. Recommended minimum cure times are shown below. These recommendations should only serve as a guide since atmospheric conditions during installation will affect the curing process.


         High humidity and/or colder weather will require longer cure times: typically add 50% to the recommended cure time if surroundings are humid or damp.
CURETIME FOR OPERATING!TEST PRESSURES TO 180 PSIG
Ambient to 1 1/2" 4"to 10"to
Temperature 1 1/4" to3" 8" 12"
60°to 110°F 1 hr 2 hr 6 hr 24 hr
40°to 60°F 2 hr 4 hr 12 hr 40 hr
0°to 40°F 8 hr 16 hr 48 hr 8 days
CURE TIME FOR OPERATING/TEST PRESSURES ABOVE 180 PSIG**
Ambient to 1 1/2" 4"to 10"to
Temperature 1 1/4" to3" 8" 12"
60°to 110°F 6 hr 6 hr 24 hr 24 hr
40°to 60°F 12 hr 24 hr 48 hr 40 hr
0°to 40°F 48 hr 96 hr 8 days 8 days
**D0 NOT exceed maximum working pressure of piping for given pipe size and operating temperature
