Rehau 235381-102 Raupex Uv Shield Pex-a Coil Pipe 1 Inch 100 Ft Red

Product Description

The REHAU 235381-102 RauPEX UV Shield Coil Pipe is a 1-inch nominal PEX-a tubing solution built for residential and commercial plumbing, radiant heating, and hydronic systems. This 100-foot coil is made from cross-linked polyethylene using the Engel method, which gives PEX-a pipe its superior flexibility and shape memory compared to PEX-b or PEX-c alternatives. The red color coding makes it easy to identify hot-side supply lines during rough-in and installation. The pipe measures 1-1/8 inches in outside diameter with a wall thickness of 1/8 inch, meeting SDR 9 schedule rating standards. It is rated for a working pressure of 160 psi and delivers tensile strength between 4194 and 4355 psi, making it a reliable choice for high-demand residential and light commercial applications. One of the standout features of this pipe is its 12-month UV shield protection. Most PEX pipe degrades quickly when exposed to sunlight, but the RauPEX UV Shield formulation extends jobsite storage life and protects the pipe during construction phases when it may be exposed before walls are closed in. This is a practical advantage on busy job sites where material staging and scheduling do not always go as planned. The pipe is flexible enough to navigate tight mechanical chases and bend around framing without the need for fittings at every turn, reducing both labor time and the number of potential leak points. RauPEX also resists scale buildup on the interior wall, which helps maintain consistent flow performance over the long life of the system. It is a proven alternative to copper, CPVC, and other rigid piping systems, offering cost savings on both material and labor. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and mechanical contractors rely on RauPEX PEX-a pipe for its consistent quality and ease of use with expansion-style fittings and standard PEX tools.
