1.1 This specification establishes requirements for sulfone plastic insert fittings and copper crimp rings for four sizes (3/8, 1/2, and 3/4 and 1) of cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) plastic tubing. These fittings are intended for use in 100 psi (690 kPa) cold- and hot-water distribution systems operating at temperatures up to and including 180F (82C). Included are the requirements for material, molded part properties, performance, workmanship, dimensions, and markings to be used on the fittings and rings.
1.2 Units&38212;The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units, which are provided for information only and are not considered the standard.
