Product Description
Polywater BonDuit Conduit Adhesive Kit with Dispensing Tool (PW BT-KITG)
Strong, Watertight, and Airtight Adhesive for HDPE Conduit Connections.
This kit provides everything you need for a quick and efficient installation:
- 2 adhesive cartridges
- 8 mixing nozzles
- 1 strip of sanding cloth
- 8 Type RP cleaning wipes
- 1 dispensing tool
Polywater BonDuit creates watertight and airtight bonds within one hour of application. These strong connections are ideal for areas with vibration or movement, making it perfect for roadside installations or near electrical equipment like transformers and switchgear.
BonDuit is cost-effective and easy to use, requiring no special training and minimal labor—application typically takes less than five minutes.
Commonly used to join HDPE ducts to PVC conduits, BonDuit also bonds polyethylene to a wide variety of materials, including PVC couplings, concrete vaults, transition couplings, above-ground conduit, steel sweeps, fiberglass, and composite connections, as well as PEX, CPVC, ABS, and polypropylene.
Product Details:
- Polywater BonDuit is a two-part curing adhesive supplied in a side-by-side cartridge.
- Requires a ratcheted dispensing tool and nozzle to mix and apply easily.
- The cartridge can be recapped for later use with a new nozzle.
- Cold Weather Tip: Keep BonDuit warm for optimal performance. It will cure in temperatures as low as 40° F (4° C), but thicker when colder than 60° F (16° C).
Key Features:
- Versatile: Bonds HDPE to PVC, steel, and fiberglass conduits and fittings.
- Superior Strength: Higher pullout strength than mechanical couplings.
- Durable: Bonds quickly with high strength within an hour.
- Easy Application: No special training required.
- Convenient Kit: All necessary components for a fast, efficient installation.
Specifications and Applications:
- The NEC Code: Requires PVC or galvanized rigid steel pipe to be used for the transition from underground HDPE pipe to above ground connections. PVC pipe cement doesn’t bond HDPE.
- Adhesive Shear Strength: Typical bond strengths were measured by joining two pieces of HDPE conduit with a PVC coupling and BonDuit Adhesive. The force required to pull apart the joint after 24 hours at 70° F (21° C) was measured. Conduit diameter pullout force 1½” = 1233 lbs./ sq. ft.; 2” = 2,025 lbs./sq. ft.; 4” = 5,333 lbs./sq. Ft.
