Uponor F1040500R AquaPEX 1/2 in. x 100 ft. White PEX-A Expansion Pipe
Uponor AquaPEX White is a PEX-a pipe designed for use in hot, cold, and hot-water recirculation potable-water distribution systems. The pipe has the highest chlorine resistance rating of 5 and offers 1-month of UV resistance. It can also be used in hydronic or radiant heating and cooling applications, however, because the pipe does not have an oxygen-diffusion barrier, it is only appropriate in systems that contain no ferrous corrodible components or where any ferrous components are isolated from the pipe. The PEX-a manufacturing method provides exceptional flexibility, strength, and durability, allowing a bend radius of 6X the pipe diameter to help eliminate unnecessary connections with each change in direction. Also, the pipe elasticity allows it to expand up to 3 X its diameter and then shrink back down. This provides exceptional resiliency in freeze/thaw conditions. Note that no piping system is completely freeze proof, but PEX-a provides greater resiliency compared to rigid piping systems. Uponor PEX-a pipe is designed for use with Uponor ProPEX fittings, which require the use of a ProPEX expansion tool and ProPEX rings (sold separately).
- PEX-a manufacturing for superior flexibility, strength, and durability
- 100 ft. length coil to help eliminate unnecessary connections
- Designed for use with F1960 expansion connections that allow higher flow and maximum system performance
- Thermal elasticity allows pipe to expand up to 3X the diameter for greater resilience in freezing conditions
- Most flexible with a bend radius of 6X the pipe diameter
- Kink repairable with a simple shot of heat from a heat gun
- Resists corrosion, pitting, and scale buildup
- Primarily designed for use in domestic hot and cold water and hot-water recirculation systems
- No oxygen barrier on pipe so ferrous components in hydronic or radiant heating and cooling systems must be isolated
- Manufactured and listed to ASTM F876 and F877 and certified to NSF standards 14 and 61
- Hydrostatic ratings of 200°F at 80 psi, 180°F at 100 psi, and 73.4°F at 160 psi; operating conditions should not exceed 140°F at 80 psi
- Compatible with PEX expansion, compression, clamp, crimp, press, and push-to-connect fitting systems
- ProPEX expansion connections require use of ProPEX expansion tool and ProPEX rings (sold separately)
