Product Overview
The Apollo Expansion PEX 1/2 in. Plastic PEX-A Barb Plug (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.

Expansion is the way to go. These fittings work fine. So far no leaks as long as I don't reuse the m. I've had bad luck reusing the poly fittings, they leak around 50% of the time.

I love pex A. The fittings are so easy to Install. The expanding machine is cool. I don’t understand why it is not more popular than pex B. I understand that the initial investment is a couple hundred dollars more but you get what you pay for, not only for convenience but also quality and less headaches.
