What is Heating Piping System ?
Heating pipes consist of PEX Pipe, PERT pipe (PERT tubing), PB pipes, Multilayer pipe (PAP pipes)
PEX Pipe:
Polyethylene that is cross-linked using a silane (moisture cure) method after the extrusion process. This creates a durable, thermoset material.
PERT Pipe (PERT tubing):
A thermoplastic polymer specifically engineered for long-term strength and durability at elevated temperatures and pressures. It does not require cross-linking.
PB Tube:
A high-performance, semi-crystalline thermoplastic polymer known for its exceptional flexibility, thermal stability, and creep resistance.
Multilayer pipe (PAP pipes):
A multi-layer composite pipe consisting of an aluminum layer welded and bonded between an inner and outer layer of PEX (usually PEX-A or PEX-B).

Product Advantages
Product Advantages of PEX Pipe:
- High cross-linking density (>70%), providing excellent long-term strength and resistance to stress cracking.
- Outstanding thermal memory effect, allowing for secure connections with expansion-type fittings.
- Excellent resistance to chlorine and oxidation.
- Good flexibility.
- High resistance to creep deformation at high temperatures.
Product Advantages of PERT Pipes (PERT tubing):
- Good flexibility and ease of installation.
- Excellent hydrostatic strength at elevated temperatures.
- Superior low-temperature impact resistance, reducing the risk of cracking during handling in cold weather.
- Can be thermally welded using socket fusion, creating seamless, leak-free joints.
- Good chemical resistance.
Product Advantages of PB Tube:
- Extremely high flexibility, making it very easy to handle and install.
- Superior resistance to creep and stress cracking under continuous load.
- The smoothest inner wall surface among plastic pipes, resulting in excellent flow characteristics and reduced pressure drop.
- High thermal stability and impact strength.
- Can be joined by heat fusion, creating monolithic joints.
Product Advantagesof Multilayer pipe (PAP pipes):
- The aluminum core acts as an oxygen barrier, protecting system components from corrosion.
- Completely impermeable to oxygen, which is critical for closed-loop heating systems.
- High dimensional stability; the pipe does not expand or contract as much as all-plastic pipes under temperature changes.
- The aluminum layer adds strength and allows for a smaller bending radius compared to PEX/AL/PERT pipes.

FAQ
FAQ of PEX Pipes
Q1:What is the key advantage of PEX-B's memory effect?
-
A: It allows the pipe to shrink tightly onto a fitting after being expanded, creating a reliable, mechanical joint.
Q2:What is the maximum temperature for PEX-B?
-
A: It can typically withstand continuous operation at temperatures up to 95°C.
Q3: How does PEX-B's flexibility compare to PE-RT?
A: They are generally similar, but specific flexibility can vary by manufacturer and grade.
Q4:Can PEX-B be used with clamp fittings?
-
A: Yes, it is fully compatible with clamp-type (crimp) fittings, expansion fittings, and push-to-connect fittings.
Q5:Is there a smell associated with PEX-B?
-
A: Some types may have a slight odor from the cross-linking process, but this does not affect water quality or safety.
FAQ of PE-RT Pipes(PERT tubing)
Q1:Can PE-RT pipes be used for radiator connections?
-
A: Yes, they are suitable for low-temperature radiator systems commonly used in modern installations.
Q2: Does PE-RT have a memory effect like PEX?
-
A: No, it lacks the strong molecular memory of cross-linked PEX.
Q3: How are PE-RT pipes joined?
-
A: They can be joined using clamp-type fittings, compression fittings, or thermal fusion.
Q4: Is PE-RT suitable for underground applications?
-
A: Yes, with proper insulation and protection, it can be used for underground circuits.
FAQ of PB Tube
Q1: What is the main advantage of PB pipe?
A: Its combination of extreme flexibility, high-temperature resistance, and the ability to be heat-fused makes it a premium choice for demanding applications.
Q2:How does PB's pressure rating compare to PEX?
A: PB typically has a very high pressure rating, often superior to many PEX and PE-RT grades at similar temperatures.
Q3: Can PB be used outdoors?
-
A: It is susceptible to UV degradation and should not be used in direct sunlight without protection.
FAQ of Multilayer pipe (PAP pipes)
Q1: Why is an oxygen barrier important?
-
A: It prevents oxygen from penetrating the pipe wall and corroding ferrous components (like boilers, pumps, and radiators) in closed-loop heating systems.
Q2: What is the advantage of PAP's shape-holding ability?
-
A: It allows for neat, professional-looking installations, reduces the number of fittings required, and simplifies installation in complex layouts.
Q3: Can PAP pipes be used for potable water?
-
A: Yes, if the inner PEX layer is certified for potable water.
Q4: How are PAP pipes connected?
-
A: They are typically connected using specialized compression or crimp fittings designed for multi-layer pipes.
