After inserting the PEX-A Expansion Sleeve into the pipe and the Barb, but I am still able to tw...
Asked by Tony October 20, 20201
AnswerWhen making a PEX-A connection, you'll first need to slide the PEX-A Expansion Sleeve onto the PEX-A pipe. Then, using your manual or power tool, expand the pipe and sleeve enough so that you can slide your fitting into the pipe. After about 30 seconds, the pipe and sleeve will find its original form and compress back down onto the fitting, making a successful connection. After doing so, it is not uncommon for you to be able to twist the fitting 360°. This will not cause a leak. Do not use super glue on or with PEX.

Garbage. What do I have to do to make this seal? It stretches & stays that way!
Everything is the size it should be. But, my 3/4 fittings can pretty well be pushed into the tubing--with these sleeve/rings attached--& without using the expansion tool. I bought the Apollo brand expansion tool that's recommended "for ease of use" on so many videos regarding connectivity longevity. These sleeves do nothing--or extremely little to help the PEX remember it's memory placitity--I've had my fitting duct taped to the tubing for 45 minutes--& I can still pull the fitting out. It's like the manual expansion tool warps the tubing on the first pump.
If cold weather conditions effect the elasticity or memory--then notice should be given. I'm certainly not the only person to replace my water supply from the house to the meter, after old pipes were discovered leaking. I'm not the only one who has this happen in fall/winter. Also, Home Depot should have everyone working there knowledgeable & trained in PEX installation --since there are 6+ fitting systems!

I actually prefer to use these vs the Upnor brand most plumbing pros use. The collar is a little bigger and catches the pipe every time vs slipping over.
