Ardi PEX is a
cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) product manufactured according
to ASTM F-876/F-877/CTS-OD SDR9 and EN ISO 15875 standards.
Cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) tubing provides excellent
chemical and corrosion resistance, making it ideally suited for
harsh water conditions or aggressive installation environment.
PEX Tubing is
also used to
distribute heat via water in Radiant Heat and Hydronic Heating
Systems. Most radiant heat systems require PEX Tubing with an
oxygen barrier. Ardi PEX Tubing has an
oxygen barrier which is ideal for radiant heat systems and PEX-al-PEX tubing
that has an aluminum layer which acts as an oxygen
barrier. |

Ardi PEX PipeArdi PEX pipe is produced with crosslinked polyethylene.
Crosslinking is obtained through a chemical process that
increases the bonds between macromolecules to form a more
complex structure than the normal polyethylene. Due to the
crosslinking, the polyethylene's performance is greatly enhanced
still maintaining the excellent properties of thermoplastics. |
Ardi 5-layer PEX Pipe
Ardi 5-layer PEX pipe
is made up of five layers: crosslinked polyethylene, adhesive,
oxygen barrier, adhesive, crosslinked polyethylene. The layers
of adhesive bind the two layers of crosslinked polyethylene to
the central barrier layer by a thermal reaction. The barrier
layer is right in the center, this preventing the pipe from
being damaged by scratch and from reducing its performance due
to the moisture. |
 |
PEX
inner layer:
Cross linked polyethylene with all
mechanical, electrical, chemical and thermal properties. |
 |
 |
Adhensive
layers:
Having the following purposes:
- to perfectly
bond the EVON polymer and PEX.
- to absorb eventual shifting
movements between EVOH polymer and PEX, likely to occur in
opposite directions.
- to give 5-layer PEX the advantages of
single component pipe. |
 |
EVON oxygen barrier layer:
Acts as Oxygen Diffusion
Barrier. |
 |
PEX outer layer:
To protect EVON layer against outer environmental influences an
is resistant to construction material, acids coming from the
soil, mechanical aggressions, atmospherical influences like bab
and cold weather, handling conditions on site, etc... |
 |
Ardi Corrugated PipesArdi PEX pipe running through walls or ceilings should be
protected with corrugated pipe. In addition, it is advisable to
protect the pipes after assembly against damages caused by other
work being done on the site. The corrugated pipe in red or blue
is made of polyethylene and is separately available. |

More Information |
PEX Tubing
PEX stands for cross linked polyethylene. PEX Tubing is the most
advanced and tested material available on the market today. PEX
Tubing is designed for use in Radiant Floor Heating Systems and
PEX Plumbing systems. It is gaining in popularity due to its
ease of installation and durability.
Radiant Heat
PEX Tubing has revolutionized the Radiant Heat market. The
combination of strength, flexability, and memory make PEX the
perfect product for Radiant Heat Installations.
Other ways to refer to PEX Tubing include PEX Pipe, PEX Tube,
PEX Piping, PEX, Plumb PEX and Heat PEX. All of
these names refer to the same product. |
