It is manufactured using REHAU's high-pressure peroxide crosslinking method, which produces a true PEXa molecular structure known for flexibility, memory recovery, and long-term pressure performance. The co-extruded PE shield protects the pipe from ultraviolet light exposure for up to one year, making it suitable for staging, outdoor storage, and applications with temporary sun exposure before final installation. Plumbers and mechanical contractors install this pipe in residential and light commercial hydronic and potable water systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRAUPEX UV shield pipe is used in residential and commercial plumbing, radiant heating, and hydronic distribution systems. The UV protection layer extends the pipe's usable service life during job-site storage and phased construction, where material may sit exposed to sunlight before walls are closed or insulation is applied. The 20-foot stick length is compatible with standard expansion-style and clamp-style PEX fittings appropriate for PEXa tubing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePEXa construction via high-pressure peroxide crosslinking method for superior flexibility and shape memory\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCo-extruded polyethylene UV shield provides up to one year of ultraviolet light protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-inch nominal size suitable for main distribution runs in residential and light commercial systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWhite color for easy identification and standard job-site handling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e20-foot stick length reduces field cutting waste compared to coiled formats in straight-run applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with PEXa-compatible expansion-style and clamp-style fittings sized for 1-inch nominal PEX tubing in potable water, radiant heat, and hydronic piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of PEXa pipe should be performed by a licensed plumber or mechanical contractor in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the water supply before making any connections. Use only fittings and joining tools rated and listed for PEXa tubing at the applicable nominal size. The UV shield extends outdoor exposure tolerance but does not replace permanent UV-rated insulation or jacketing for long-term exposed installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Crosslinked Polyethylene (PEXa)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUV Shield Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Co-extruded Polyethylene (PE)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: White\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUV Protection Duration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Up to 1 year\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: 235381-023\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"REHAU","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51468557943090,"sku":"235381-023","price":42.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/pexa-white-straight_56e1526c-f164-4f01-8af8-0eedc1e73b8d.jpg?v=1783917519","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/rehau-235381-023-pexa-uv-shield-pipe-1-inch-20-ft","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
