Pipe & Fitting Protection and Care

during Handling and Installation:

BUSHPEX Crimp Gas PEX-AL pipe and fittings must

be protected from damage through all stages of the

process from transport to storage and installation in

accordance with AS/NZS5601. Provision for pipe

and fitting protection therefore includes but is not

limited to the following:

• Care must be taken to keep pipe free of grit, dirt,

dust and foreign matter.

• Care must be taken to ensure fittings are free of

grit, dirt, dust and foreign matter and the yellow

retainer is securely seated onto the fitting with the

stainless steel crimp ring and dual “O” rings are

seated correctly.

• Pipe must be protected from physical damage

including cuts, abrasion, dents, kinks, tears,

holes, etc.

• Pipe must be protected from long term or

permanent U.V. exposure.

• Pipe and fittings must be protected from

excessive heat or burning, (refer to maximum

operating temperature detailed in Pipe

specification section), chemical / solvent attack,

animal or rodent attack, machinery damage,

other external threats, etc.

• Chemical or corrosive environments.

1. Pipe needs to be protected.

2. Fittings must be wrapped and protected. This

includes all underground installations for all

fittings.

• Pipe support and clipping; both vertically and

horizontally to ensure conformance for

vibration, excessive tension, torsion or

compressive stresses on fittings and pipe. Refer

to pipe specification Chart for spacing.

Technical Information

BUSHPEX Crimp Gas

•

Pipe penetrations through timber and steel frames and

concrete sections need to conform and may require protection

using grommets, fire collars, sleeving or wrapping. Holes,

notches and cutouts must be accurately drilled “in-line” to

allow movement for any expansion or contraction of the pipe

and fitting so engagements are not exposed to excessive

stress. Refer to Pipe specification Chart for timber frame cut

out limitations.

Pipe Expansion and contraction needs to be accommodated

during installation to allow for movement due to thermal

Linear expansion. Failure to do so may exceed torsional

pullout allowances on fittings resulting in product failure. Refer

to Pipe specification Chart for the Thermal Expansion

co-efficient.

Pipe Bending; BUSHPEX Crimp Gas PEX-AL pipe is flexible but

requires care when bending to avoid kinks, cracks or other

permanent deformation that may restrict flow or put undue

pressure on joints. If the pipe is kinked, bent or damaged in

any way it must be cut out and replaced. BUSHPEX Crimp Gas

elbows are recommended for tight bends and larger pipe sizes

above 32mm. Refer to the Pipe specification Chart for

minimum bending radius and tools for bending.

Connecting Barbs; when soldering connecting barbs, (male or

female) first remove/dismantle the yellow plastic retainer ring,

stainless crimp ring and two “O” rings, then, solder the brass

connecting barbs – allow to cool before assembly. When

assembling the fitting, ensure the yellow plastic retainer ring,

the two “O” rings and the stainless steel sleeve are installed

correctly. (Refer to picture on Page 9 of this brochure for

assembly detail). Alternatively, use elson PRESS Crimp-On

fittings from copper to BUSHPEX Crimp Gas.
