Product Description
Achieve strong, permanent, and leak-proof joints on all your PVC projects with E-Z Weld GLGAL-GRY 222 Medium Body Gray PVC Cement. This high-strength, fast-setting gray glue is engineered for both residential and commercial applications, including pressure systems (potable water, irrigation, pool/spa) and non-pressure systems (DWV - Drain, Waste, and Vent).
The medium-body consistency provides a good balance of fill capacity and ease of application for PVC piping and fittings up to 6 inches in diameter (all schedules). The gray color of the cement provides a clean, consistent finished appearance often preferred in industrial or exposed utility applications. This cement meets stringent industry standards (ASTM D2564 and NSF/ANSI 61 certified), ensuring a reliable, code-compliant solvent weld every time.

💡 Professional Tips
- System Flush: Due to the "gray" color, this cement is typically used for gray Schedule 80 industrial piping and certain DWV (Drain, Waste, Vent) applications where color matching is desired.
- Use with Primer: For best results and code compliance, always use a compatible PVC primer (like the EZ Weld clear or purple primer) *before* applying cement to clean and soften the pipe and fitting surfaces.
- Proper Assembly: Apply an even coat to the pipe end, a slightly heavier coat to the fitting socket, and join quickly with a quarter-turn. Hold firmly for 30 seconds to prevent the joint from pushing back out.
- Pressure Testing: Allow adequate cure time before pressure testing the system. Check the manufacturer's specific cure time chart, as this depends heavily on temperature and pipe size.
