  • 1.25-1.5" PEX Fittings?

    Anybody got a good source for 1.25 or 1.5" PEX fittings?

    New Cold Liqour Tank has 1.5" jacket inlets and needs at least 1.25" glycol drops to get the necessary flowrate- I've searched high and low for anything over 1" for PEX fittings and can't find anything. The larger diameter PEX tubing is no problem to find, but I'm convinced the fittings don't exist.

    Thanks for the help!

      Thanks, but the clamps aren't my issue. I'm trying to find PEX Elbows, T's, PEX-NPT adapters, etc in 1.25" or 1.5".

      I know some guys are running all PEX glycol loops and I assume those headers are bigger than 1" PEX tubing... Where did you guys get your couplers, T's, etc?

        Looks like you might be limited in the styles of fitting for those sizes. I found these: http://www.supplyhouse.com/PEX-Press-Fittings-825000 and Supply House has a lot of other PEX fittings. Look around.

        This is not a promo for Supply House--they just bought out (or consolidated) several of my online suppliers.

            Hmm... that link seems to be broken. Try this: http://www.supplyhouse.com/PEX-Fittings-525000
