EZIPEX pipe is a high quality PEX-a cross linked polyethylene pipe. In general terms, polyethylene in its normal state is not capable of handling high pressure or temperature loads. However once subjected to the cross-linking process, its ability to handle these conditions is increased substantially.
EZIPEX pipe consists of an inner section of PEX-a material encased in an outer layer of tough HDPE.
The EZIPEX pipe is colour coded to assist the installer in avoiding cross connections.

Performance
EZIPEX™ pipe provides users with many advantages over traditional piping materials. It has excellent flexibility, offers a high degree of resistance to damage caused by freezing, offers excellent pressure and temperature resistance, is lightweight and also has low noise and heat transmission qualities.
EZIPEX™ pipe provides very low levels of friction loss and therefore can often save users the need to upsize piping when installing long runs. As jointing methods are mechanical, it does not require the use of solvents. Nor does it require soldering, welding or brazing.
