Industrial Grade Primer Can

This OATEY 30771 primer is an industrial grade product supplied in a 32 oz can. It is formulated for use on adhesive type pipe and cures to a purple colour. The item meets ASTM D2846 and ASTM F493 standards and carries NSF and UPC certification. It is suitable for plumbing professionals and industrial maintenance crews who require a code compliant primer.

Standards and Temperature Rating

The primer complies with ASTM D2846 and ASTM F493, providing assurance for pressure pipe applications. It is rated for a minimum performance temperature of 200 degrees Fahrenheit. These specifications indicate the product is built for demanding environments where standard grade primers may not meet code requirements. The jump to industrial grade is worth it when local codes mandate these specific standards.

Professional Installers and Code Restricted Areas

This primer suits licensed plumbers and contractors working on CPVC or PVC systems that require purple primer verification. It is not intended for buyers who need a clear primer for aesthetic reasons or for use on non adhesive pipe types. The product is restricted from sale in certain states, so purchasers in those locations should look at alternative code approved options.

Questions about this item

Does the 32 oz can fit standard shelf spacing?

The 32 oz can is a typical quart size that fits common plumbing supply shelving.

How do I apply the purple primer correctly, and what step is often missed?

Shake the can well, apply a full even coat to pipe and fitting sockets, and let it tack up before cement; many skip the tack time.

When will the industrial grade primer need replacement?

Replace the can if the primer gels, strings, or exceeds the shelf life printed on the label; store tightly sealed below 200 Degrees F.
