Product Overview

Apollo Expansion PEX is cross-linked polyethylene tubing designed for use within potable water piping systems. Produced using a Peroxide method, Apollo Expansion PEX is PEX-a pipe. Having been in use for over 50-year PEX-a pipe has the highest rate of cross-linking of any PEX pipe. Apollo Expansion PEX is the most flexible PEX pipe available. Apollo Expansion PEX Pipe provides superior durability, corrosion resistance and flexibility for the most demanding environments. Apollo Expansion PEX is available with red, white and blue print lines for the simple identification of cold water, hot water and main water lines. The Apollo Expansion PEX system is a comprehensive cold expansion piping system comprised of brass fittings, poly alloy fittings, manifolds, valves, fasteners, tools and tubing designed for implementation in water delivery systems, simple or complex.

• Superior flexibility allows for fewer joints, thus reducing leak points
• Expandable and allows for "full flow"
• Less coil memory than traditional PEX pipe and resists the urge to remain coiled
• Compatible with both expansion and crimp, clamp or sleeve methods of joining
• Heat-repairable if kinked during installation, thus further eliminating additional repair connections
• Shape memory inherent in PEX-A pipe results in the shrinking of expanded pipe to normal size, creating strong, durable, and reliable ASTM F1960 fitting connections
• Maximum cross-linking increases flexibility and resistance to cracking
• Copper tube size dimensions (CTS)
• May be installed in concrete, gypsum-based lightweight concrete, sand, asphalt, in or under wood flooring, behind wallboard or plaster, or directly buried
• Available in red, blue, and white colors
• Approved for use with brass and poly alloy crimp fittings (ASTM F1960 and ASTM 1807)
• 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
• 25 year warranty
