Zurn q5ps20xblue Pex Tubing 1 in 20 Ft Blue Non-barrier

Product Description

The ZURN q5ps20xblue is a non-barrier PEX water tubing produced using the silane crosslinking method, delivering reliable performance in both hot and cold potable water systems. This blue-coded tube measures 1 inch nominal diameter with an ID of 0.862 inches and an OD of 1.125 inches, with a wall thickness of 0.125 inches and a 20-foot length per coil. Silane-crosslinked PEX offers consistent flexibility and pressure resistance across a wide temperature range. Plumbers and pipefitters working on residential or commercial water distribution systems install this tubing as a durable alternative to copper or CPVC.

This tubing is suited for residential and commercial plumbing applications including cold water service lines, hot and cold potable water distribution, fire protection systems, underground fluid distribution, and manifold-fed water systems. The blue color coding follows standard trade convention for cold water lines, helping installers quickly identify supply circuits during rough-in and service. It is appropriate for both new construction and retrofit projects where flexible tubing is preferred over rigid pipe.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before cutting into any existing line. Use PEX-rated cutting tools for clean, square cuts, and ensure fittings are compatible with the silane PEX material type. Avoid kinking the tubing during bending; use bend supports or elbows where tight turns are required.
