Made from crosslinked polyethylene (PEX-a), it carries a working pressure of 160 psi at 73.4 degrees F and features a 0.236-inch wall thickness with an outside diameter of 2.125 inches. The SDR 9 schedule rating delivers consistent wall geometry throughout the run. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors install this pipe in domestic hot and cold water distribution, hydronic heating, and radiant systems where flexible routing through tight mechanical chases is an advantage over rigid copper or CPVC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pipe is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and hydronic applications where straight-length PEX-a is preferred over coiled formats. The 20-foot straight length is practical for longer uninterrupted runs in open framing, basement mechanical rooms, and commercial rough-in work. Its flexibility relative to rigid pipe simplifies navigation around existing framing, conduit, and ductwork without the need for additional fittings. The UV shield formulation extends acceptable outdoor or open-air storage and staging time on active job sites compared to standard PEX pipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePEX-a crosslinked polyethylene construction for superior flexibility and memory recovery\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12-month UV shield protection for job-site staging and temporary outdoor exposure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e160 psi working pressure at 73.4 degrees F; 100 psi at 180 degrees F; 80 psi at 200 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSDR 9 schedule rating with 0.236-inch wall thickness for consistent performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.125-inch outside diameter; 20-foot straight length minimizes field cuts on longer runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eResists scale buildup to maintain long-term flow capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation straight-length PEX-a pipe for residential and commercial domestic water distribution and hydronic heating systems using 2-inch nominal PEX fittings and expansion-style connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation must be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the applicable sections of the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the water supply before cutting into any existing line. PEX-a pipe requires expansion-style tooling or manufacturer-approved crimp and clamp fittings rated for the nominal pipe size; do not mix connection methods not listed for PEX-a. Support spacing, burial depth, and thermal expansion allowances must comply with the pipe manufacturer specifications and local authority having jurisdiction requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Crosslinked Polyethylene (PEX-a)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: White\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWall Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.236 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: SDR 9\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWorking Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 160 psi at 73.4 degrees F; 100 psi at 180 degrees F; 80 psi at 200 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTensile Strength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4194 to 4355 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 73.4 degrees F (reference condition)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUV Shield Protection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 months\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: REHAU\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 132591-023\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"REHAU","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51467474567474,"sku":"132591-023","price":173.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/313947767.jpg?v=1783905440","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/rehau-132591-023-pex-a-uv-shield-pipe-2-in-20-ft-sdr-9","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
