Sharkbite U880W10 Pex-b Pipe 1 in X 10 Ft White

Product Description

The SHARKBITE U880W10 is a 1-inch inside diameter PEX-B flexible tubing coil, 10 feet in length, in white. It is designed for potable water distribution in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. PEX-B tubing is cross-linked polyethylene manufactured using the silane method, which produces a flexible, durable pipe rated to 80 psi and a temperature range of 33 degrees F to 200 degrees F. The outside diameter measures 1-1/8 inches. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this tubing as a primary water supply line or branch line, taking advantage of its flexibility to reduce the number of fittings required on a run.

This tubing is suited for hot and cold potable water distribution, fire protection systems, and municipal water service line applications in both new construction and retrofit projects. Its freeze-resistant construction allows the pipe to expand slightly when frozen and return to original dimensions upon thawing, reducing the risk of burst pipes in installations subject to freezing conditions. The white color coding is typically used for neutral or non-directional runs where red or blue color coding is not specified.

Compatibility

Designed for use in potable water distribution, fire protection, and municipal water service line systems requiring 1-inch PEX-B tubing. Compatible with standard PEX fittings and connection systems sized for 1-inch PEX pipe with a 1-1/8 inch outside diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting or connecting tubing. Use a dedicated PEX cutting tool to ensure a clean, square cut at connection points. Do not bend the tubing beyond its minimum bend radius, and use bend supports or elbows at tight turns to avoid kinking.
