How tight can I bend Iplex K2™ PE-X pipe?
Due to the pipe’s inherent flexibility and it’s availability in 50 metre and 100 metre coils, PE-X pipe can be bent easily around obstructions or through studs and plates with the minimum use of fittings. Care should be taken not to kink or damage the pipe. It is recommended that the minimum bending radius be 8 times the outside diameter of the pipe. If this is not possible an Iplex K2 elbow should be used. If for any reason the pipe is kinked or damaged, the faulty section should be replaced.
