Manufactured using the Type B silane cross-linking method, this pipe includes elevated levels of anti-oxidants and thermal stabilizers, making it well-suited for chlorinated water systems and recirculation loops. It carries a burst pressure rating of 1,100 psi at 73 degrees F and 375 psi at 180 degrees F. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors install this pipe in residential and light commercial potable water systems. NSF-61, FDA, CSA, ASTM, and UPC certifications confirm its suitability for drinking water contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis PEX-B stick is intended for hot water distribution lines where rigid, straight runs are practical. The 10-foot length suits rough-in work, wall drops, and branch lines. It is compatible with 3\/4-inch Quick Connect and brass PEX insert fittings. The Type B silane cross-linking process provides enhanced resistance to oxidation and chlorine degradation, which is especially relevant in recirculation systems where hot, chlorinated water cycles continuously through the pipe. Type A, B, and C designations are European system classifications and do not represent a quality grading hierarchy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePEX-B silane cross-link method with elevated anti-oxidants and thermal stabilizers for chlorine and recirculation service\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\u003eRed color coding identifies hot water service lines at a glance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with 3\/4-inch Quick Connect and brass PEX insert fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNSF-61, FDA, CSA, ASTM, and UPC listed and approved for potable water use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e25-year warranty covering materials, non-prorated, valid even when used with other manufacturers ASTM SDR-9 certified fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 3\/4-inch Quick Connect and brass PEX insert fittings meeting ASTM SDR-9 certification, including fittings from other manufacturers.

Support pipe every 30 inches both vertically and horizontally, and protect the pipe where it enters or exits slabs or walls. 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, and never kink or expose it to direct sunlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch CTS (Copper Tube Size)\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\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Red (Hot Water)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBurst Pressure at 73 degrees F\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1,100 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBurst Pressure at 180 degrees F\u003c\/strong\u003e: 375 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications\u003c\/strong\u003e: NSF-61, FDA, CSA, ASTM, UPC Listed\/Approved\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\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: U870R10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SHARKBITE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51559463125298,"sku":"U870R10","price":69.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6b245ef4ab17715286ab3ef263cf757c_9dc41da8-29b8-4238-bf42-b6a57494f242.jpg?v=1786433148","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sharkbite-u870r10-3-4-inch-pex-b-pipe-10-ft-red-hot-water","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
