PAL Insert Fittings

PAL Insert Fittings are designed to be compliment  with the CANPEX™ Series tubing to provide homes and apartments with a corrosion resistant water distribution system.

Tested in plumbing applications in Canada for many years, PAL Insert Fittings have proven to be both durable and reliable year after year. PAL Insert Fittings are ideal for areas where metallic pipe or fittings are attacked by corrosion, hard or acidic water or electrolysis. These fittings provide a clean, NSF certified system which does not allow metal to come into contact with the water supply, which helps prevent corrosion and hard water deposits.

PAL Insert Fittings have many features not offered by the brass alternative.  PAL fittings are:

* Corrosion & Chemical damange resistant
* Electrolysis resistant
* High impact resistance

PAL insert fittings complete a totally plastic distribution system as they are

Durable, dependable and corrosion resistant for your most demanding potable water applications.

Brass Insert Fittings

CB Supplies offers Brass Insert Fittings used with its CANPEX™ series tubing

Brass Insert Fittings and black copper crimp rings can be used as connections for CANPEX™ and CANPEX™ ULTRA tubing in 3/8", 1/2", 3/4", and 1" sizes. The connections are assembled with a full-circle crimp tool designed specifically for that purpose.

A permanent, sealed connection is made when a copper crimp ring is compressed around the tubing, pressing the PEX into spaces between the ribs of the insert fitting. A wide range of fittings is available to make connections, reductions or transitions to PEX tubing, fixtures, or other piping material. The line also features a complete selection of ball and stop valves.Image of Fitting

Brass Insert Fittings are manufactured from lead-free* extruded or forged brass with some fittings supplied in copper. All Brass Insert Fittings are precision made to tight tolerances for a consistent fit with CANPEX™ tubing.

The black, copper crimp rings are manufactured from UNS C102200 copper alloy. Rings are annealed to 35-45 Rockwell 15T scale for ease of crimping. The black coating is not a paint but a surface treatment which does not add to the dimensions of the ring.

Brass Insert Fittings and rings are manufactured and certified to the requirements of ASTM F1807 to insure compatibility with all SDR9 PEX tubing and fitting components from numerous manufacturers.

Metallic Brass Insert Fittings are designed to be used with CANPEX™ series PEX tubing for hot and cold water conveyance systems operating up to 100 psi @ 180°F and 160 psi @ 73°F. Applications include, but are not limited to potable water distribution and hydronic heating systems.

Brass Insert Fittings system components are interchangeable with components and tubing from other PEX suppliers providing they are manufactured to the same ASTM specifications and the manufacturer approves the mixing of components. Because Vanguard Pipe & Fittings Ltd. has no control over the quality of other manufacturers, we do not extend any warranty to those components that are not supplied by Vanguard Pipe & Fittings Ltd.

For information on other hot and cold applications not listed here, consult with your CB Supplies representative.
