Product Q&A
8 QuestionsQ: Will the elbow 3/4 side fit on a piece of radiant heat?
Asked by Dobbiedoo 12 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- SupplyHouse StaffThe 3/4" port can connect to 3/4" nominal copper, PEX, or CPVC (each of which has a 7/8" outside diameter).
yes if its 3/4 tubing
Q: My in-floor heating has 6 loops of PEX-AL-PEX tubing coming out to a custom copper manifold. I would like to convert to a PEX 6 loop manifold with flow control valves. Do you have fittings for PEX-AL-PEX to PEX tubing?
Asked by Ralph 14 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffThere is no single fitting that allows you to connect PEX to PEX-AL-PEX. Assuming you have 1/2" tubing and don't want to use any special PEX tools, you can use a PAP-0500M fitting along with either a 450PXF03 or U072 fitting. You can also connect 1/2" PEX-AL-PEX directly to most radiant heat manifolds. Use part D4120500 with Uponor TruFLOW manifolds and part MA-50PAP with Rifeng manifolds.
Q: Does Pex work with flexible copper? If so is the white insert used with flex copper?
Asked by Bill 14 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffThe white insert is only necessary with PEX, which has a unique inside diameter. You can keep the insert in the fitting when using copper, but it may cause a very slight flow reduction. SharkBite fittings work with flexible copper, but it's a good idea to keep a straight run of at least a few inches out of the fitting.
Q: the inner insert does it need to be pulled out for use with copper and left in for pex or does it stay for all three types.
Asked by Rookie plumber 15 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffThe insert can be left in with copper. The purpose of the insert is to stiffen PEX inside the fitting. It must be left in with PEX, but it's optional with copper and doesn't really serve a purpose.
You can leave it in. I have and I mixed copper and pex and I have not a leak one. Simple rule if the pipe won't insert because of the plastic insert then remove it.
Q: can these fittings hook cooper to PEX tubing.
Asked by 15 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffYes, they can. SharkBite fittings work with copper, PEX, and CPVC (all of which have the same outside diameter for a given size).
Q: An these fittings be used for GAS? such as on a pipe coming from the wall for a gas stove?
Asked by tommyzim 15 years ago

Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffNo, SharkBite fittings are not approved for use with gas.
Q: are these 1" fittings 1 inch I.D or O.D
Asked by jimbow 15 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffThese 1" x 1" elbows accept PEX, copper, or CPVC designated as 1". This will be copper with a 1" ID.
Inside diameter of the fittings, use with all 1" pipe, pex or CPVC.
