50 Pcs XFITTING 3/4 Pex Copper Ring, Pex B Crimp - Black-Oxidized Surface

Types of PEX Fittings:

Crimp Fittings are the most common type of PEX fittings, requiring a crimp tool to compress a metal ring (crimp ring) around the PEX pipe and fitting for a secure connection.

Push-Fit Fittings, also known as push-to-connect or quick-connect fittings, do not require any special tools. They have a ring inside that securely grips the PEX pipe when pushed together.

Compression Fittings use compression nuts and rings to create a watertight seal. They are commonly used for repairs or when transitioning between PEX and other types of pipes.

Expansion Fittings require a specialized tool to expand the PEX pipe, allowing the fitting to slide inside. The pipe then returns to its original size, creating a tight seal around the fitting.

Installation Steps: 1. Prepare the Pipe: Cut the PEX pipe to the required length using a PEX pipe cutter. 2. Deburr the Pipe: Use a deburring tool to remove any rough edges from the cut end of the pipe. 3. Insert the Fitting: Slide the crimp ring onto the pipe (for crimp fittings) and insert the fitting into the end of the pipe. 4. Crimp the Ring: Use a crimp tool to compress the ring around the pipe joint. 5. Check the Connection: Visually inspect the connection for proper compression. 6. Pressure Test: Test the system for leaks by pressurizing with air or water.

Tips for Working with PEX Fittings: - Use PEX-specific fittings designed for compatibility. - Follow manufacturer guidelines and local plumbing codes. - Use the correct size and type of fitting for your PEX pipe. - Properly support and secure PEX piping to prevent leaks. - Consider using expansion fittings for tight spaces. - Keep spare fittings on hand for repairs or modifications.
