Types of PEX Fittings:

Crimp Fittings: The most common type of PEX fittings requires 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, these fittings do not require any special tools. With a ring inside that grips the PEX pipe securely when pushed together.

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