5 Pack 1 PEX Tee Poly Alloy - Crimp Fittings

Types of PEX Fittings:

Crimp Fittings: The most common type of PEX fittings require a crimp tool to compress a metal ring (crimp ring) around the PEX pipe and fitting, creating a secure connection.

Push-Fit Fittings: Also known as push-to-connect or quick-connect fittings, these fittings don't require any special tools. They have a ring inside that grips the PEX pipe securely when pushed together.

Compression Fittings: These fittings utilize compression nuts and rings to create a watertight seal, commonly used for repairs or transitions between PEX and other pipe types.

Expansion Fittings: These fittings require a specialized tool to expand the PEX pipe, allowing the fitting to slide inside. When the pipe returns to its original size, it creates a tight seal around the fitting.
