SDR-9 PEX Tubing

All of the PEX tubing sold on SupplyHouse.com meets SDR-9 standards. This “standard dimension ratio” ensures that PEX tubing from different manufacturers has the same outside and inside diameters. Consequently, the same PEX fittings work with any SDR-9 tubing (with the exception of expansion-type fittings, which are only compatible with PEX-A). The dimensions below reflect the standard dimensions for typical sizes of PEX. They are different for PEX-AL-PEX.
