What is PEX pipe?

Almost all PEX used for pipe and tubing is made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE). PEX contains cross-linked bonds in the polymer structure, changing the thermoplastic to a thermoset. Cross-linking is accomplished during or after the extrusion of the tubing. It provides an excellent option for plumbing,radiant and hydronic systems in both residential and commercial plumbing applications.When combined with push-fit fittings, manifolds, valves, and other accessories, PEX pipe offers the fastest way to plumb any project.
