In-Store Exclusive

This one's worth the trip to the store.

Brands like Weber, Milwaukee, Yeti, and DeWalt restrict where their products can be sold online — and for good reason. In-store buyers get authentic products, full manufacturer warranty, and access to pricing that simply isn't allowed to be advertised on the web.

  • Authorized dealer network · Full manufacturer warranty & support
  • Guaranteed authentic · No counterfeits, no gray-market resellers
  • The brands set these standards · Be wary of sellers who don't follow them

Every order helps keep your local hardware store on the corner.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

About Product Overview

Oatey Clear Cleaner for ABS/CPVC/PVC is a dedicated pipe-cleaning solution designed to prep ends for solvent-weld connections. Packaged in a convenient 1-gallon container with an integrated applicator in the lid, this clear formula lets you see exactly where you’ve applied the cleaner for precise, tidy prep work.

Designed to work with common piping materials—ABS, CPVC, and PVC—this cleaner helps remove surface contaminants to improve the bonding performance of solvent cement. The built-in applicator in the lid makes applying cleaner to pipe ends quick and controlled, reducing mess and waste on the job site.

Key benefits

  • Compatible with ABS, CPVC, and PVC piping
  • Clear formula for easy visibility of treated areas
  • Applies directly from a lid-integrated applicator for precise coverage
  • Large 1-gallon capacity supports multiple projects or bigger repairs
  • Prepares pipe ends to promote strong, reliable solvent-weld bonds

How to use

  1. Apply the cleaner to the pipe end and the inside of the fitting where the bond will form, using the built-in applicator for even coverage.
  2. Wipe away any residue or debris with a clean cloth to ensure a smooth, clean surface.
  3. Proceed with solvent cement per the cement manufacturer’s instructions to complete the joint.

Who benefits most

Ideal for homeowners tackling DIY plumbing repairs, as well as professional plumbers and contractors working with ABS, CPVC, or PVC systems. Use this cleaner whenever you need a reliable surface prep step to maximize the performance of solvent-weld connections in water supply lines, drain lines, or irrigation installations.

Choose Oatey for a trusted, purpose-built cleaner that supports durable, leak-free piping installations. The clear formula, built-in applicator, and 1-gallon capacity make it a practical, no-nonsense solution for everyday plumbing projects.

Their Counter
Try local first · we'll wait

The stores we send you to are local and independently run — often for generations, the kind of place where someone behind the counter knows the regulars. We don't own them. We just think they deserve the foot traffic. They can put most of what we sell on their next truck. Ask there before you check out here.

About our directory. National Hardware Group is an independent retailer and directory. The local stores we list and link to are separately owned and operated — we have no ownership stake in any of them, and most pay us nothing to be included. That includes plenty of stores flying a co-op banner that people don't realize are locally owned and run, not operated by a corporation. Store owners can choose to upgrade their listing for an enhanced presence or pickup features, but the base directory is free, and inclusion is never a paid endorsement.
