Gene 404 is a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) solvent cement used for joining PVC pipe and socket-type fittings which meet Class 12454B as defined in ASTM Specification D 1784, and for joining ABS to PVC transition pipe and socket-type fittings.

Gene 404 is a clear, regular body cement.

CHARACTERISTICS:

NSF approved for potable water	Exceeds ASTM D 3138 specifications
UPC (IAPMO) listed under File No. 1796	Manufactured with only high quality 100% virgin materials
Exceeds ASTM D 2564 specifications	Faster setting regular body formula is ideal where makeup time is at a premium on smaller diameter pipe

APPLICATIONS:

GeneÈõ¾ 404 is specifically formulated for all PVC pipe applications such as potable water, pressure pipe, gas, conduit, sewers, and drain, waste and vent (DWV).

It is for use on PVC pipe through 2" Schedule 40 pressure piping and up to and including 4" Schedule 40 non-pressure (DWV) piping.

It may also be used for making up transition joints between ABS and PVC in non-pressure (DWV) piping.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Store and apply between 40 degree F and 120 degree F. Protect from freezing. Do not use if cement has become curdled, lumpy, thickened or is beyond two years from date stamped on container. Do not thin.
2. Cut pipe end square and remove ragged edges and burrs. Clean fitting socket and pipe of dirt, grease, and moisture, and check for proper fit. Apply PRIMER to all PVC surfaces in accordance with instructions. For transition joints, ABS surfaces do not have to be primed. While still wet, quickly begin solvent cement application.
3. Wear non-permeable gloves during application to avoid skin contact.
4. Shake well before using and stir frequently while using. Apply with supplied dauber applicator. For pipe greater than 2" diameter, use natural bristle brush sized to 1/2 pipe diameter.
5. Apply thin coat evenly to socket. Quickly apply heavy coat to pipe end. Cement must remain wet. If not, recoat. Then quickly insert pipe into fitting with slight twisting movement until it bottoms out.
6. Hold pipe into fitting for at least 30 seconds to prevent pipe from backing out of tapered socket.
7. Wipe excess cement from joint with rag. Allow 15 minutes before handling. Avoid full-line pressure for 24 hours. Cure time varies with size, fit, temperature and humidity.

PRECAUTIONS:

D A N G E R!
