Sharkbite UA60R100 Pex-a Pipe Roll 100 Ft

Product Description

The SHARKBITE UA60R100 is a PEX-A flexible pipe sold in a 100-foot roll, designed for potable water distribution in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. PEX-A is manufactured using the Engel method, which produces the most flexible and kink-resistant form of cross-linked polyethylene tubing available in the trade. This roll format is suited for running continuous supply lines, reducing the number of fittings required on longer runs. Licensed plumbers and pipe fitters install this product for hot and cold water distribution, radiant heating loops, and ice maker or fixture supply lines. The 5.57-pound roll weight makes it manageable for single-person installation in tight spaces.

The UA60R100 is used in residential new construction, remodels, and retrofit applications where flexible piping is preferred over rigid copper or CPVC. Its flexibility allows routing through wall cavities, floor joists, and crawl spaces with minimal support hardware. It is appropriate for both above-slab and in-slab installations where local codes permit. Plumbers running manifold-based home-run systems will find the 100-foot roll length well-suited for whole-house branch circuits without mid-run splices.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local amendments. Shut off the main water supply and depressurize the system before cutting into any existing lines. Use a manufacturer-approved pipe cutter and the appropriate expansion or push-to-connect tool rated for PEX-A tubing. Do not use open flame or solvent cement with PEX-A pipe, and avoid prolonged UV exposure by protecting exposed runs.
