Typical setting time is 24 hours under normal conditions. Keep the outside collar of compound as a setting indicator.

Before you make the connection.
Is X-Pando ready to use straight from the can?
No. Mix the dry powder with clean water before application. Do not add water to revive an existing batch; prepare a fresh mix instead.
Can a sealed joint be taken apart later?
Yes. The manufacturer describes applying wrench pressure while tapping around the fitting to break the expansion bond. Removal takes more effort than with some other sealants.
Is it suitable for drinking-water systems?
The manufacturer lists NSF/ANSI 61 certification for drinking water and NSF/ANSI 372 for lead content. Confirm suitability for the complete piping system and intended conditions.
