Manufactured using the silane cross-linking method (Type B), this pipe carries elevated burst ratings of 1,100 PSI at 73 degrees F and 375 PSI at 180 degrees F. PEX-B construction incorporates additional anti-oxidants and thermal stabilizers, which supports performance in chlorinated water systems and recirculation applications. It is compatible with 1\/2-inch Quick Connect and brass PEX insert fittings. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this pipe in residential and light commercial potable water systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis pipe is rated for cold water service and is designed for use in residential and commercial plumbing installations where flexible, corrosion-resistant tubing is required. It is suited for recirculation systems where chlorine resistance and thermal stability are priorities. The blue color coding helps distinguish cold water lines from hot water lines during rough-in and inspection. It is sold as a 10-foot rigid stick, making it practical for straight runs in framed walls, joist bays, and mechanical rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePEX-B (silane method) construction with added anti-oxidants and thermal stabilizers for chlorine and recirculation system compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBurst rated at 1,100 PSI at 73 degrees F and 375 PSI at 180 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch CTS sizing, compatible with 1\/2-inch Quick Connect and brass PEX insert fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue color coding designates cold water service for easy field identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNSF-61, FDA, CSA\/ASTM certified and UPC listed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e25-year warranty covering materials, non-prorated, valid with ASTM SDR-9 certified fittings from any manufacturer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1\/2-inch Quick Connect and brass PEX insert fittings meeting ASTM SDR-9 certification.

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 kink the pipe or expose it to direct sunlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch CTS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePEX Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type B (silane cross-link method)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eService\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cold water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBurst Pressure (73 degrees F)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1,100 PSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBurst Pressure (180 degrees F)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 375 PSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications\u003c\/strong\u003e: NSF-61, FDA, CSA\/ASTM, UPC Listed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25 years, materials, non-prorated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SHARKBITE CASH ACME\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: U860B10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SHARKBITE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51558889619762,"sku":"U860B10","price":40.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a89fecae52efd096c1f66df38ff45c2e_c14b622f-d6e8-4bd4-8510-a7aea9e952a1.jpg?v=1786421909","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sharkbite-u860b10-1-2-in-pex-b-blue-cold-water-pipe-10-ft","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
