Apollo Appw51 Pex-b Pipe, 1 In. X 5 Ft., White, 160 Psi

Apollo PEX-B pipe is a cross-linked polyethylene tubing engineered for hot and cold potable water distribution systems in residential and commercial plumbing applications. This 1-inch diameter, 5-foot length pipe combines durability with flexibility, allowing you to route it around obstacles without sacrificing performance. The white color simplifies identification and troubleshooting during installation and future repairs.

PEX-B tubing is created using the silane (moisture cure) method, where cross-linking occurs in a secondary post-extrusion process. This produces strong C-C-Si-O-SiC-C bridges between polyethylene chains, resulting in a tubing that resists corrosion and maintains performance in various water conditions. The tubing is suitable for continuously recirculating plumbing systems up to 140 degrees Fahrenheit and resists chlorine, ensuring long-term reliability.
