Dry-fit into the socket to verify the pipe seats fully against the internal seating ring (~half the coupling's length on each side). Apply Spears P-70 (or equivalent) PVC primer to both the pipe end and the inside of the socket — the primer is what chemically softens the PVC for cementing; skipping it is the most common reason a joint fails. Apply medium-bodied PVC solvent cement to both surfaces. Push the pipe fully into the socket and rotate 1\/4 turn to spread the cement and eliminate dry spots. Hold the joint for 30 seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRepeat for the second end\u003c\/strong\u003e with the same primer and cement procedure. If you're using the coupling to splice between two existing pipe ends, work both joints quickly — medium-bodied cement gives you ~15 seconds of working time on 3\/4 in. pipe before it sets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCure:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 hour before low-pressure water test; 24 hours before full operating pressure.
