The aluminum layer in the pipes reduces thermal expansion, making them comparable to copper. The cross-linked PEXc inner layer makes the pipes flexible. This means fewer connectors, simplifying installation and reducing cost.

Reliable connections

Reliable connections

Tigris K1 connectors are made from high performance PPSU to resist corrosion and encrustation. Their patented sculptured nose gives a secure connection with minimal push-in force. If an installer forgets to press, connectors are designed to show immediate visible leakage during pressure testing.
