This process produces a true PEXa pipe with a high crosslink density, resulting in a flexible, durable tube suited for potable water, hydronic, and radiant heating applications. A co-extruded polyethylene shield is bonded to the outer wall, providing protection from ultraviolet light exposure for up to one year. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors install this pipe in systems where temporary outdoor or sunlit staging is part of the workflow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pipe is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and hydronic distribution systems. The UV shield makes it practical for jobsite storage or runs that pass through unconditioned spaces with sunlight exposure before final enclosure. The 20-foot stick length works well for above-grade rough-in, mechanical room manifold feeds, and radiant panel supply and return lines. It is cut with standard PEX pipe cutters and compatible with REHAU's RAUPEX expansion fitting system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTrue PEXa construction via high-pressure peroxide crosslinking for superior flexibility and memory\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCo-extruded UV-resistant polyethylene shield protects pipe from sunlight exposure for up to one year\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/2 inch nominal size in white color for easy identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e20-foot stick length suitable for straight runs and mechanical room distribution\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlexible enough to bend without kinking at low temperatures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation pipe for residential and commercial PEXa plumbing and hydronic systems using 1-1\/2 inch connections and expansion-style fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC).
