PexPenta Pipe – Reliability and Durability in Heating Systems

PexPenta PE-Xc pipe is a modern solution designed for building efficient and safe floor and hydronic heating systems. It stands out on the market due to its five-layer construction and complete anti-diffusion barrier, ensuring long-term protection of the installation against corrosion. The pipe is manufactured from electron-crosslinked polyethylene (PE-Xc), providing exceptional strength and flexibility.

PexPenta pipe is not only distinguished by high-quality materials but also by innovative production technology. All five layers are produced simultaneously, ensuring perfect bonding and optimal mechanical properties. The centrally positioned EVOH anti-diffusion barrier effectively prevents oxygen ingress into the system, protecting metal components from corrosion and extending system lifespan.

Construction and Properties

PexPenta pipe combines a range of features that make it an ideal choice for both professional installers and end users:

• Strength and Flexibility: PE-Xc material ensures resistance to high temperatures (up to 90°C) and pressure (6 bar), while allowing easy routing even in complex installations.
• Anti-Diffusion Barrier: The EVOH layer minimizes oxygen penetration, protecting system components from corrosion and extending service life.
• Thermal Conductivity Coefficient: λ = 0.42 W/(m·K) – ensures efficient heat distribution in floor heating systems.
• Low Linear Expansion: k = 0.15 mm/(m·K) – minimizes thermal stresses in the system caused by temperature fluctuations.
• Shape Memory: The pipe returns to its original shape when heated, simplifying installation and repairs.
• Warranty: The manufacturer offers up to 30 years of warranty on PexPenta pipe, reflecting its high quality and reliability.
• Hook-and-Loop Tape: Enables convenient fixing of the pipe onto Klettjet insulation mats during floor heating installation.

The pipe is supplied in coils of 240 meters, facilitating transport and storage on-site. Wall thickness is 2 mm, with an outer diameter of 16 mm. Water content per meter is 0.113 liters. The orange color aids identification during installation and future maintenance.
