The Plumber’s Choice 1/2 in. x Red PEX Tubing Oxygen Barrier Radiant HEATING Pipe

Blue PEX potable water tubing (non-barrier PEX tubing) is used for residential and light commercial hot and cold-water plumbing applications. Tubing is marked every 5 ft. with length, ASTM standards, approvals, certifications, pressure ratings and other technical information. PEX flow PXKT-RB10012 PEX tubing is a strong and flexible cross-linked polyethylene tubing with superior temperature and pressure ratings that is useful for plumbing project in commercial and residential hydronic radiant heating applications. PEX-B is made using a “silane” or “moisture cure” method of crosslinking, where links between the molecules of the HDPE polymer are formed after the extrusion process using a catalyst and by exposing PEX tubing to water (steam bath). PEX flow tubing conforms to NSF, UPC, ASTM and Warnock Hersey standards. PEX tubing without Oxygen barrier is common for the following applications. Plumbing applications (hot and cold water). Loop radiant heating applications technical data: diameter: 1/2 in. L, 100 ft. (red) and 100 ft. (blue) PEX type: PEX-B pressure ratings: 80 psi and 200°F, 100 psi, 180°F, 160 psi, 73°F minimum bending radius: 5 (industry standard for 1/2 PEX) SDR-9 dimensional standards. Tubing is marked every 5 ft. with length, ASTM standards, approvals, and certifications for ease of use Save time and money with our economical PEX kits Outdoor usage PEX tubing composite provides freeze protection by expanding and contracting Ideal for commercial and residential hydronic radiant heating applications Superior operation of oxygen barrier tubing prevents oxygen and foreign elements from penetrating the heating system, thereby protecting metal parts from corroding Important – this type is used strictly for heating applications and is not suitable for potable water plumbing
