Becoming increasingly popular PEX tubing and fittings for water supply systems as used by the utilities, as well as advanced and pipes for gas tubing system, were spread around the globe and stretching in all countries .. High rates of gasification of the country are pushing to increase the already high demand for PEX tubing and all components and accessories.
Demand for PEX tubing connected with a number of advantages over other materials:
1. price for PEX tubing and fittings are much lower and therefore PEX tubing are cheaper, and thus runs the project goes much lower cost compared with steel pipes;
2. in polyethylene tubes removed and the roughness of the passage of transporting natural environments does not cause fouling the inner surface of the pipe;
3. PEX tubing – is a reliable shield against the microorganisms and bacteria, their inner layer of water does not give any harmful impurities;
4. PEX tubing do not corrode and are much longer than counterparts on purpose;
5. so-called “lengthy” PEX tubing (on reels or in coils of up to 450 m) reduces the number of welds are 50-100 times;
6. low thermal conductivity, which have PEX pipes and fittings, reducing heat loss and reduce condensation on the outer surface of the pipe;
7. assembly and export of pipe is very simple, because of lighter weight that can not be said about the steel pipes;
8. PEX tubing are not destroyed by freezing the liquid, as this pipe does not collapse, but increases in diameter, acquiring former size during thawing of the liquid;
9. installation of polyethylene pipe is cheaper and easier.
