Featured Product:
Uponor is the leader in PEX tubing for plumbing, fire sprinkler, radiant heating/ cooling, hydronic piping and pre-insulated piping. More than 15 billion feet of Uponor PEX tubing is in service around the world. With that kind of history, you can count on Uponor PEX to offer the highest-quality tubing for all your application needs.
Flexible
PEX tubing offers the tightest bend radius of any plumbing product on the market-as little as 3½” for½” tubing. This eliminates the need for fittings and connections with each change of direction, and fewer fittings reduce your liability for leaks and problems.
Durable
The re-pipe business has never been better with all the pinhole leaks in copper caused by harsh-water conditions. Because PEX resists the damaging effects of harsh-water conditions, it is usually the top choice for re-pipe jobs.
Reduced liability
In addition to fewer fittings for reduced liability, PEX tubing cannot be dry-fit,* eliminating concerns that a connection is made.
(*When using cold-expansion use ASTM F1960 fittings.)
Resists freeze damage
Because PEX tubing can expand and contract, it is less susceptible to freeze damage compared to rigid copper pipe.
Sustainable
A 2008 life cycle study showed PEX requires less energy to produce and has an overall lower carbon footprint compared to copper.
