Product Overview
The Apollo Expansion PEX 1/2 in. Plastic PEX-a Barb 90 Elbow (10-Pack) is simple to install. Apollo Expansion PEX poly alloy fittings are the perfect alternative to brass in regions where water quality can negative affect brass. Apollo PEX barb fittings are a key component of the most economical potable water piping systems. Also capable of integration into hydronic heating systems, Apollo Expansion PEX couplings must be secured into place using a Apollo Expansion PEX sleeve or comparable cold expansion-type sleeve or ring (all sold separately). The Apollo Expansion PEX system is a comprehensive cold expansion piping system comprised of brass fittings, poly alloy fittings, manifolds, valves, fasteners, tools and tubing designed for implementation in water delivery systems, simple or complex.
- Pro pack includes 10 fittings
- Larger internal diameter of Apollo expansion PEX fittings results in a 25% greater flow rate within the system
- Constructed of high density polysulfone alloy for superior reliability and strength
- Cold-expansion tool (sold separately) is required for installation
- Meets or exceeds ASTM F1960 standard
- Meets UPC, IPC and cUPC standard
- Must secured in place using Apollo expansion PEX sleeves or other PEX-A expansion sleeves/rings
- Go/no-go gauges are never required
- Barb x barb connection for PEX-A plumbing systems
- To ensure secure connections every time, fittings cannot be dry fit
- Rated to 200F and 200 psi
- Item is not compatible with PEXb pipe, crimp-style (ASTM 1807) or pinch clamp (ASTM F2098) piping systems

I usually use uponor fittings with the uponor pipe. I found myself in a situation where I had every fitting I needed except for 1/2” elbows and rings. These are the same price per piece and work just fine. I’m skeptical of most products outside of my preferred brand, and I was happy to see these fittings are made in Canada so my confidence was regained.

They leaked at every joint. Initially I thought I was installing them wrong and tried to contact their CS, but they weren't open on the weekends, so I looked it up, and it seemed I was installing them correctly, which would also explain why my expansion fittings from another brand were working fine. I had to toss so many sleeves and a frustrating amount of Pex A pipe because of these fittings. If I could demand a refund for the wasted pipe and sleeves I would, but I'll have to settle for just returning the fittings. I'm assuming this is a brand specific issue though, from what I've heard, Poly fittings are generally better than brass for expansion connections.
