Pure PEX-A Piping System
Not all pipes are created equal.
The World’s First, Best and Most Widely Used.
Join the global trend towards Uponor Pure PEX-A piping systems.
Applications:
- Suitable for over 400 different types of fluids
- Perfect for hot and cold drinking water
- Perfect for water based heating and cooling applications, eg underfloor heating (oxygen barriered version)
- New builds
- Renovations
Specifications:
- 16 to 75mm using the Q&E connection system
- 90 to 110 using Wipex jointing
- 125 to 160 using electrofusion fittings and jointing
- Available in PN6 and PN10
- Intended for tap water systems with a continuous operating temperature of maximum 70 °C (instantaneous maximum 95 °C). Operating pressure maximum 10 bar (1 MPa)
- Available plain and with oxygen barrier
- Available in bars and coils
Features:
- 100+ year design life
- 15 year manufacturer warranty
- Designed for fast installation
- Does not give off taste, odour, heavy metals or leach chemicals
- Has latest European drinking water certification
- No theft value
- Self-sealing joint
- No crimps, internal sleeves, solder, nuts etc.
- No tool calibrating
- No heating of the joint
- System cannot be cannibalised
- Simplest jointing system available
- Easy visual inspection of joints
- Long lengths
- Fewer joints
- Lightweight
- Flexible
- Repairable
- Thermally insulative
- Not form stable
- Heat moulded
- Manifolds
- 100% recyclable
Benefits:
- The plumbing will last the life of the concrete structure
- Peace of mind for the system owner
- Save up to 2/3 of your installation labour cost
- Safe, beautiful, hygienic drinking water
- Benefit from ongoing and current research into what is safe for consumption. Old standards are improved for good reason.
- Greater profitability
- Improved safety on construction sites
- Only system available which does not rely on the installer to close the joint – meaning greatly reduced risk of joint failure.
- Hugely reduced scope for installation failure
- No risk of system failure due to over/under heating the joint
- Risk of installation being contaminated with non compliant product, is eliminated
- Fastest installation, reduced skills level for competent installation
- This is the only piping system where you can easily visually check if the joint has been correctly done or not.
- Fewer joints (cost saving), faster installation (cost saving)
- Reduced opportunity for leaks
- Easy to transport (labour cost effective)
- Fewer elbows (cost saving), reduced pressure loss, reduced chance of kinking
- Kinks are quickly and easily 100% self healed with the application of heat, thus ensuring long runs maintain their integrity.
- Naturally more energy efficient
- Can be conduited, thus enabling damaged pipe to be replaced without having to chase holes eg. To repair hole drilled into pipe.
- With the application of heat, Pex-A can be bent into shapes, which hold their form when the pipe is cooled.
- Enable serviceable installations with conduits. Provide single access point for single quality isolating valve.
- We are all about sustainable use of resources. Our latest product, Aqua Blue, has a reduced CO2 footprint of up to 90% compared to fossil based pex pipes on the market.
Quick & Easy Jointing Technology
The Q&E fitting is a jointing concept that relies on the unique elastic features of PEX-A pipe to create a joint that is stronger than the pipe itself. The unique shape memory of PEX-A piping forms a tight seal around the fitting creating a strong reliable connection within seconds.
Specifications:
- 16 to 75mm
- In high performance PPSU and threaded Dr brass
- Intended for tap water systems with a continuous operating temperature of maximum 70 °C (instantaneous maximum 95 °C). Operating pressure maximum 10 bar (1 MPa)
