    Big pex

    When I bought some here in Nebraska, I think they actually had to import it from Sweden. I had to get the brass compression by pipe thread couplers to use on the ends too. The book shows propex rings for 1 1/4, but I guess you need a big power tool to use.

    The compression type worked real well, but now in retrospect, I should have done a minitube type of system to supply that manifold.
    If you need it now, or if you are using this in a radiant heating application, maybe you should consider another option. Or maybe someone out east stocks it.

    Check out your Rehau distributor they will be able to get some 1-1/4", and the fittings fairly quickly.

    What I have done in the past is run 2-1" lines and tied themtogether at both ends. Tubing and fittings are readily available. Don't know if that helps. I would hate to have big pex and find I needed 1 more fitting just to wait for transcontinental shipment. Good luck. Let us know if you find large pex.
