Can-Mate Dauber Design
The Can-Mate Dauber provides a manual applicator configuration for transferring compatible joining material from its container to prepared piping surfaces. The dauber allows material to be applied directly to the required pipe and fitting joining areas.
Applicator selection should account for the container configuration and the size of the surfaces being prepared. Confirm that the dauber provides suitable access to the joining material before beginning the installation procedure.
Joining Material Application
The dauber applicator helps distribute compatible solvent cement or primer across prepared pipe and fitting surfaces. Application should follow the applicable instructions for preparation, coverage, assembly, and required cure procedures.
The applicator and joining surfaces should remain clean during use to help prevent unwanted contamination. Verify compatibility between the joining material, piping components, and application procedure before assembly.
Container & Applicator Selection
The Can-Mate configuration should be matched to the compatible container and joining material being used. Container access, pipe diameter, fitting size, and the required application area should all be considered when selecting an applicator.
Using an appropriately configured dauber helps provide practical access to the joining material during installation. Confirm the applicator and container requirements before ordering for a specific piping project.
Plastic Piping Installation
The Can-Mate Dauber can be used as part of compatible plastic piping joining procedures where a dauber-style applicator is appropriate. Pipe preparation, fitting preparation, joining material selection, application technique, and assembly remain important parts of the completed connection.
Installation requirements can vary according to piping material, connection size, joining product, and job conditions. Follow the applicable product and joining instructions for the piping system being installed.
Installation & Selection Considerations
- Confirm the dauber configuration.
- Verify container compatibility.
- Check the pipe and fitting size.
- Confirm joining material compatibility.
- Follow the applicable joining procedure.
