PEX Tubing
SharkBite
®
PEX tubing is a cross-linked polyethylene tubing
for a wide range of residential and commercial plumbing
applications. Manufactured without an oxygen barrier for
potable water systems and with an oxygen barrier for radiant
floor and hydronic heating applications. The oxygen diffusion
barrier applied to the exterior limits oxygen permeation
through the tubing wall in hydronic heating applications
which prevents corrosion of ferrous metal parts in the heating
system. A repeating SharkBite
®
imprint pattern provides a
visual aid to determine if the tube has been inserted all the way
into the SharkBite
®
Push-Fit Fitting. This feature only works if
the tubing is cut between the SharkBite
®
imprint pattern.
Approvals: The SharkBite
®
tubing with and without oxygen barrier
is approved for use in all model codes in the US and Canada for use
in hydronic and potable water systems and is certified to the follow-
ing standards: NSF 14/61, NSF P171, ASTM F 876, ASTM F 877, CSA
B137.5 and AWWA C904.
PEX With Oxygen Barrier - Straight Lengths and Coils
Use for radiant  oor and hydronic heating applications. The oxygen diffusion
barrier is applied to the exterior and limits oxygen permeation through the
tubing wall in hydronic heating applications. This prevents corrosion of ferrous
metal parts in the heating system.
