Rifeng crimp fittings will work with the Watts crimp tool. Any 1/2" PEX we sell (except for PEX-AL-PEX) will work with 1/2" crimp fittings.
No special cutter is required; you can just use a utility knife. Just be careful not to nick the tubing.
The PEX tubing is freeze-resistant, but not freeze proof. The tubing will expand at freezing point but only to a certain extent. It is usually dependent on your location, and installation method as well.
For the 1-1/4" sized tubing you would have to use ProPEX fittings. The only tool that accommodates this size tubing is the electric expander tool, and the 1-1/4" head would have to be purchased separately.
The 1 1/4" PEX lock clips (SKU: 58075 by Viega) can be used with this PEX tubing. You can find this item on our website on the following link: http://www.pexsupply.com/Viega-58075-1-1-4-PEX-Lock-Clips-Package-of-50-12524000-p
