Legend Valve 460-927 Pex Cold Expansion Ring 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The LEGEND VALVE 460-927 is a cold expansion crimp ring designed for use with 1-1/2 inch F1960 PEX connections. This fitting-type ring is installed during the PEX cold expansion process, where the ring and pipe end are expanded together before receiving a PEX fitting. Once released, the memory of the PEX pipe and ring contract tightly around the fitting, creating a secure, leak-resistant joint. Licensed plumbing contractors and mechanical installers use this ring during radiant heating, hydronic distribution, and potable water piping installations where PEX-a pipe and the cold expansion method are specified.

This ring is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and hydronic systems using 1-1/2 inch PEX-a pipe installed per the F1960 cold expansion standard. It is appropriate for in-floor radiant loops, manifold distribution systems, and domestic water supply runs where larger pipe diameters are required. The cold expansion method is commonly favored for its strong joint integrity and compatibility with PEX-a pipe material.

Key Features

• F1960 cold expansion connection type for use with PEX-a pipe
• 1-1/2 inch connection size for larger diameter piping applications
• Crimp ring fitting type engineered for the cold expansion process
• Compatible with standard F1960 PEX expansion fittings and tools
• Designed for consistent, repeatable joint performance in radiant and plumbing systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use cold expansion ring for 1-1/2 inch F1960 PEX-a piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or mechanical contractor using an F1960-rated cold expansion tool sized for 1-1/2 inch pipe. Shut off water supply and depressurize the line before beginning any pipe work. Follow ASTM F1960 installation guidelines and applicable local plumbing codes for joint preparation, expansion sequence, and inspection. Do not substitute this ring with crimp rings intended for F1807 or other non-expansion PEX connection standards.
