Sharkbite U870W10 3/4 in Pex-b Pipe 10 Ft White Water Supply

Product Description

The SHARKBITE CASH ACME U870W10 is a Type B (silane-crosslinked) PEX pipe in 3/4 inch Copper Tube Size (CTS), supplied in a 10-foot straight stick length. Rated at 1,100 psi at 73 degrees F and 375 psi at 180 degrees F, this SDR-9 pipe is engineered for both hot and cold potable water distribution. Type B silane-method crosslinking provides elevated antioxidant and thermal stabilizer content, a key advantage in chlorinated water systems and recirculation loops. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this pipe in residential and light commercial water supply applications using compatible quick-connect or brass PEX insert fittings.

The U870W10 is suited for residential and commercial potable water supply lines, including hydronic distribution and recirculation systems where chlorine resistance and thermal stability are required. The straight stick format simplifies rough-in work in new construction and remodel projects. It is compatible with 3/4 inch quick-connect and brass PEX insert fittings that meet ASTM SDR-9 certification. The 25-year warranty remains valid even when the pipe is used with ASTM SDR-9 certified fittings from other manufacturers, covering materials on a non-prorated basis.
