Which manifolds work with Vevor 1/2" pex al pex?

Options
Hello my radiant floor gurus. I have Vevor 1/2" pex al pex tubing. My prospective contractor asked me to find out if it requires a special manifold or will work with any standard manifold like a BlueFin or HydroSmart. Thanks in advance for your response. Paul

    Does the tubing have an ASTM F1281 listing on it?

    Caleffi manifolds are available with PAP connectors.

    I have attached both to show the difference

    The PAP nut has longer insert, double end o-rings and the brass ferrule to grip the tube better

    Hydro Smart doesn't make manifolds. but anything with a PAP fitting will work

    The manifold is not the issue ...... you need to order the the correct fitting for the manafold for the PEX you are using. The PAP have o rings .... typically two.
