For 112" PEX with OD of 518", minimum bending radius is 8 x 5/8"= 5". <br />Over -bending the PEX pipe. deforms Its' round shape, restricts flow and over - <br />stresses the pipe. <br />Note: minimum bending diameter only refers to the 90 -degree and 180 -degree (U- <br />shaped) bends. Parallel runs of pipe can be spaced as Gose as necessary. <br />Elongation (linear expansion) <br />Typical elongation is anywhere from 1" to 2.5" for every 100ft of PEX pipe at a 10•F <br />temperature rise. <br />Since PEX expands and contracts with temperature changes, it should be secured <br />so as to provide sufficient space for expansion to occur. <br />All types (A, B, C) of PEX tubing are compatible with Crimp, Clamp or Push -to -connect type connection systems: <br />• Crimp system: Crimp Tool + Copper Crimp Rings (per ASTM F1807 standard) + Crimp style PEX Fittings (brass -per F877/F1807 or poly -per <br />F877/F2159 standards). <br />• Clamp (Cinch) system: Clamp Tool + Stainless Steel Clamps (per ASTM F2098) + Crimp style PFS( Fittings (same as above). <br />• Push system: Push -Fit or Push -to -Connect style fittings (no tools or rings required) <br />Standards, Approvals & Certifications (Everhot PEX) <br />ASTM F876: Standard Specification for Crosslinked Polyethylene (PEX) Tubing. <br />ASTM F877: Standard Specification for Cmsslinked Polyethylene (PEX) Plastic Hot- and Cold- Water Distribution Systems. <br />ASTM F2023: Oxidative resistance of PEX to Hot Chlorinated Water per NSF protocol P171 (Non -Barrier PEX Tubing). <br />CSA 8137.5: Gmsslinked Polyethylene (PEX) Tubing Systems for Pressure Applications. <br />NSF/ANSI 14, nsf-dh: Evaluated for use in Radiant Floor Healing (NSF-rth) Applications (Oxygen Barrier PEX tubing). <br />NSF/ANSI 61-G, NSFIANSI 372, nsf-pw-g: Complies with NSFIANSI standard 61-G for Lead -Free Drinking Water System Components (Non -Barrier PEX <br />Tubing). <br />UPC listed by tAPMO (International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials). <br />Customer Service <br />Track Orders <br />Return Products) <br />Return Policy <br />Shipping Policy <br />Tax Information <br />Company Info <br />Low Price Guarantee <br />Terms of Use <br />Privacy Policy <br />Contact Us <br />Explore PecUniverse <br />Leaming Center <br />Request a Quote <br />Coupons <br />offlow <br />aro., ,I t. dgs+t M"lel Y' dirm f <br />SECURE <br />filed//C:/Users/Fatima/Desktop/pex.html 213 <br />
