Apollo PEX-B tubing is a cross-linked, high-density polyethylene pipe designed for hot and cold potable water distribution systems in residential and commercial plumbing applications. This 100-foot coil of 1-inch white PEX tubing uses the silane (moisture cure) method to create durable cross-linked bonds that resist chlorine and temperature fluctuations, making it ideal for new construction, renovations, repairs, and continuously recirculating plumbing systems.
The flexible design of this PEX pipe allows for easy handling and installation in tight spaces and a variety of environments. The tubing can be installed in concrete, gypsum-based lightweight concrete, sand, asphalt, under flooring, or behind wallboard, providing versatility for both straightforward and challenging plumbing layouts.
Features and Benefits
- Silane Cross-Linking Method: The advanced moisture cure process creates strong C-C-Si-O-SiC-C bridges between polyethylene chains, ensuring durability and long-lasting performance.
- Chlorine Resistant: PEX-B tubing withstands exposure to chlorinated water, making it suitable for municipal water systems and various plumbing applications.
- Temperature Rated to 140°F: Safe for both hot and cold water distribution and continuously recirculating plumbing systems up to this temperature limit.
- Flexible and Easy to Install: The tubing's flexibility allows installation in concrete, lightweight concrete, sand, asphalt, under flooring, or behind wallboard without cracking or brittleness.
- Compatible with Standard Fittings: Works with all PEX-B fittings and connectors for straightforward connections and repairs.
