Mr Pex 7153862 Conduit Bend Support 3/8 to 5/8 Inch

Product Description

The MR PEX 7153862 is a plastic conduit bend support designed for radiant and hydronic tubing installations in concrete slabs. It holds tubing in a controlled bend radius at conduit entry and exit points, preventing kinking and maintaining flow path integrity where tubing transitions from slab to wall or mechanical chase. Compatible with tubing sizes from 3/8 inch through 5/8 inch, this support is a standard component in below-slab radiant heat and PEX distribution layouts. Installation is handled by plumbers and radiant system specialists working on new construction or slab retrofit projects.

This bend support is suited for concrete encapsulation applications where tubing must change direction at a penetration point. It is used in residential and light commercial radiant floor heating systems, snowmelt installations, and domestic water distribution runs that pass through or under concrete. The support keeps the bend geometry consistent during the pour, reducing the risk of tubing damage from concrete pressure or foot traffic on the layout before the slab sets.

Key Features

• Plastic construction resists corrosion and chemical exposure in concrete environments
• Accommodates tubing sizes from 3/8 inch to 5/8 inch
• Maintains controlled bend radius to prevent kinking at conduit transitions
• Designed for full concrete encapsulation without degradation
• Supports tubing alignment during slab pour and curing

Compatibility

Designed for use with 3/8 inch and 5/8 inch tubing in plastic conduit bend applications for concrete installation.

Installation Notes

Installed by licensed plumbers or radiant heating contractors during the rough-in phase before concrete is poured. Secure the bend support to the conduit or tubing layout prior to the slab pour to prevent shifting during concrete placement. Verify tubing is fully seated in the support and that the bend radius meets system design requirements before encapsulation. Follow local plumbing codes and the tubing manufacturer guidelines for minimum bend radius specifications.
