Product Identity

Weld-On 13997 PC-64 Purple Primer-Conditioner is a solvent-based primer formulated for PVC and CPVC pipe systems. It prepares pipe and fitting surfaces by softening and cleaning them before solvent cement is applied. The product is intended for professional plumbers and maintenance crews who join pressure and non-pressure piping in residential, commercial or industrial installations.

Installation and Common Issues

The primer comes in a 32 oz can with an integrated dauber for direct application to pipe ends and fitting sockets. Apply a full, even coat to both surfaces immediately before cementing. Work in a well-ventilated area and avoid contact with skin or eyes. The most frequent problems are insufficient coverage, allowing the primer to dry before cement is applied, and using the product below 10 degrees F or above 110 degrees F where performance is not guaranteed.

Standards and Practical Limits

The formulation meets SCAQMD Rule 1168/316A for volatile organic compound content. It is not approved for use with ABS piping or with adhesive types other than PVC/CPVC solvent cements. The purple colour provides visual confirmation of coverage but does not indicate suitability for potable water systems unless the cement used is also certified for that purpose. The product is restricted from sale in certain states; verify local regulations before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the PC-64 primer is ready for pipe adhesive after application?

The purple cured colour shows the primer has dried correctly. Apply the solvent cement while the surface is still tacky for the strongest joint.

What comes in the can and what else is required for a complete PVC or CPVC joint?

The 32 oz can holds the purple primer-conditioner only. You must buy compatible PVC/CPVC solvent cement separately to finish the connection.

Which PC-64 container size should I choose for a small residential plumbing job?

The 32 oz quart can covers roughly 64 joints of 1/2 in pipe, making it practical for typical home repairs without excess leftover.
