P-68 Purple Primer 1 qt (10210)
Ensure code compliance on every joint with Weld-On P-68 Purple Primer. The visible purple dye confirms that each pipe connection has been properly primed, while the THF-free, low-VOC formula keeps fumes to a minimum.
Code-Visible Purple Primer for PVC and CPVC
Many building codes require visible evidence that pipe joints have been properly primed before solvent cement is applied. Weld-On P-68 Purple Primer satisfies this requirement with a bright purple dye that clearly marks every primed surface, giving inspectors and homeowners confidence that the plumbing work meets code. Like its clear counterpart, the P-68 Purple Primer is THF-free with a 30% lower solvent emission rate, creating a noticeably better working environment compared to traditional purple primers.
Key Features
- Visible purple dye provides clear evidence of proper priming for code inspections
- THF-free formula reduces harmful emissions by 30% versus standard primers
- Ultra-low VOC with significantly fewer odorous fumes
- Fast-acting primer that rapidly softens PVC and CPVC joining surfaces
- Compatible with all PVC and CPVC solvent cements
When to Choose Purple Over Clear
If your local building code requires a colored primer to verify that joints have been primed — which is common in many jurisdictions — the P-68 Purple Primer is the right choice. The purple dye is permanent and does not wash off, providing a lasting record of proper installation. For applications where visual appearance matters and codes allow a clear primer, consider the Weld-On P-68 Clear Primer instead.
