Plumbing fitting for PEX systems
This 1-1/4 inch PEX coupling joins two sections of cross-linked polyethylene tubing in potable-water and hydronic installations. The no-lead DZR forged brass body meets low-lead requirements for drinking-water safety. It is intended for professional plumbers and DIY installers working on residential or light-commercial piping projects.
No-lead DZR forged brass construction
Dezincification-resistant alloy resists corrosion in aggressive water conditions while the forged brass body provides structural strength for crimp or clamp connections. The straight coupling design allows inline repairs or extensions without changing pipe direction. California Proposition 65 warnings apply because the brass contains chemicals listed by the state.
Thermal and pressure performance
Brass conducts heat efficiently so the fitting tracks system temperature without creating hot spots. The metal-to-metal seal maintains joint integrity through normal pressure cycles and thermal expansion. No moving parts or electrical components means silent operation and zero power draw in service.
