PEX Pipe for Underfloor Heating – Reliability and Durability

Penta PEX-C 17x2 PEX pipe is a high-quality solution dedicated to underfloor heating installations. Made of polyethylene (PE) with a diameter of 17 mm and a wall thickness of 2 mm, it ensures reliable operation for at least 50 years. Its unique, five-layer construction with a built-in anti-diffusion barrier minimizes the risk of oxygen penetration into the installation, which is crucial for the longevity of the system.

Construction and Properties

What distinguishes PexPenta pipe is its production process. Five layers are formed simultaneously and then subjected to electron beam crosslinking. This technology not only increases the strength of the pipe but also ensures its flexibility and resistance to mechanical damage. Importantly, the crosslinking process is carried out without the use of chemicals, making it safe for health and the environment. The pipe retains its properties even at low temperatures and is resistant to corrosion.

• Five-layer construction (Penta): provides an excellent anti-diffusion barrier inside the pipe wall, protecting against corrosion of installation components.
• Electron beam crosslinking: strengthens the pipe structure without the use of harmful chemicals.
• Flexibility and shape memory: allows for easy installation and adaptation to complex installation layouts – after heating, the pipe returns to its original shape, eliminating permanent bends.
• Strength comparable to PE-Xa: guarantees long-lasting and trouble-free operation.
• Resistance to low temperatures: allows the pipe to be used in difficult atmospheric conditions.
• Designed for operation at temperatures up to 90°C and pressure of 6 bar: ensures the safety and efficiency of the underfloor heating system.

PexPenta pipe is regularly tested for gas permeability – each millimeter of the pipe is tested with a laser during the production process, confirming its highest quality and reliability. This solution is appreciated by both professional installers and end customers looking for a durable and safe underfloor heating system.
