Sharkbite/cash Acme U870W100 Pex-b Pipe 3/4 in 100 Ft White

Product Description

The SHARKBITE/CASH ACME U870W100 is a 3/4-inch CTS (Copper Tube Size) PEX-B pipe coil in white, rated for both hot and cold potable water distribution. This 100-foot coil is manufactured using the Type B silane cross-linking method, which incorporates additional anti-oxidants and thermal stabilizers. That formulation is especially important in systems with chlorinated water and recirculation loops. Burst pressure is rated at 1,100 psi at 73 degrees F and 375 psi at 180 degrees F, meeting the demands of residential and light commercial plumbing applications. Licensed plumbers install this pipe as flexible supply tubing in new construction and retrofit plumbing systems.

This PEX-B coil is suited for residential and light commercial hot and cold water supply piping. It is compatible with 3/4-inch Quick Connect and Brass PEX Insert fittings. The flexible coil format simplifies routing through walls, floors, and framing without the need for heat or soldering. It is an effective choice for manifold distribution systems, under-slab runs with protective sleeving, and recirculation loop applications where chlorine resistance is a priority.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local codes and the IPC or UPC as adopted in the jurisdiction. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the system before cutting or connecting pipe. Support pipe at minimum every 30 inches both vertically and horizontally, and protect pipe where it enters or exits slabs or walls with appropriate sleeving. Maintain minimum clearances: 18 inches from water heaters, boilers, and wood-burning appliances; 12 inches from recessed lights; and 6 inches from gas appliance vents. Do not use duct tape, pipe dope, threading compound, or mineral or linseed oil on this pipe. Do not kink the pipe or expose it to direct sunlight during or after installation.
