Legend Valve 460-928 Cold Expansion Pex Ring 2 Inches

Product Description

The LEGEND VALVE 460-928 is a 2-inch cold expansion PEX ring designed for use in F1960 expansion-style PEX piping systems. These rings work with a cold expansion tool to create a reliable, leak-resistant connection on PEX-A tubing. The ring is expanded along with the pipe end, slid over the fitting, and allowed to recover, forming a tight mechanical joint. Plumbers and pipefitters working with PEX-A distribution systems rely on this connection method for its durability and compliance with ASTM F1960 standards. The 460-928 is sold as a set and fits 2-inch nominal PEX-A pipe.

This ring is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where F1960 cold expansion fittings are specified. Typical installations include domestic hot and cold water distribution, radiant heating supply and return lines, and hydronic piping systems. The cold expansion method is commonly chosen for its strong, memory-driven joint recovery and compatibility with brass, poly, or copper F1960-style fittings. Installations must conform to applicable plumbing codes including IPC and local amendments governing PEX piping systems.

Key Features

• 2-inch nominal size for F1960 cold expansion PEX-A connections
• Compliant with ASTM F1960 standard for cold expansion PEX fittings and rings
• Engineered for use with cold expansion tooling - no open flame or soldering required
• Creates a compression-recovery joint as the ring and pipe memory return to original diameter
• Compatible with the full range of F1960-style brass and engineered polymer fittings

Compatibility

Designed for use with ASTM F1960 cold expansion PEX-A piping systems at 2-inch nominal pipe size. Intended for use with compatible F1960 expansion fittings and a cold expansion tool rated for 2-inch PEX-A pipe.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a cold expansion tool sized for 2-inch PEX-A tubing - do not attempt to install without the proper expansion tool or damage to the ring and pipe may result. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before making any connections on an active system. Allow adequate joint recovery time after expansion before pressurizing, as specified by the fitting manufacturer and applicable code. Work should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with IPC requirements and local plumbing authority jurisdiction.
