Uponor f4930500 Aquapex Pex-a Tubing 1/2 in X 20 Ft

Product Description

The UPONOR f4930500 is a 1/2-inch diameter AquaPEX PEX-A tubing sold in a 20-foot length. PEX-A is manufactured using the Engel peroxide method, which produces the most flexible and cross-linked grade of PEX tubing available. This white tubing with blue print markings is used in potable water distribution, hydronic radiant heating, and snow-melt systems. Licensed plumbers and hydronic heating contractors are the primary installers. The blue print on the exterior identifies cold-water or general-use service lines at a glance during rough-in and inspection.

This tubing is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and hydronic applications. Its 1/2-inch nominal size is the most common diameter in domestic water distribution, feeding fixtures such as lavatories, kitchen faucets, and shower valves. In hydronic systems, the same size is standard for radiant floor loops and baseboard distribution. The 20-foot straight-length format is practical for above-slab installations, rim-joist runs, and retrofit repiping where coiled tubing is less convenient to handle.

Key Features

• PEX-A construction using the Engel method for superior flexibility and shape memory compared to PEX-B or PEX-C
• 1/2-inch diameter x 20-foot straight length for easy measurement and cutting on the job
• White tubing with blue print for quick cold-water or general-service identification
• AquaPEX designation indicates suitability for potable water applications
• Straight-length format reduces coil memory and simplifies installation in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation tubing for 1/2-inch PEX-A plumbing and hydronic radiant systems. Compatible with 1/2-inch PEX expansion fittings and crimp or clamp fittings rated for PEX-A tubing per applicable standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or hydronic heating contractor in accordance with local plumbing codes and ASTM F876/F877 standards. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the system before cutting into any existing lines. Use the correct expansion tool, crimp tool, or clamp tool specified for the fitting type and tubing size. Avoid exposing PEX tubing to direct sunlight for extended periods, as UV exposure can degrade the material over time.
