Benefits of this range include:
1. PE-X crosslinked polyethylene layers give superior heat and pressure ratings
2. Temperature rated to 95°C with short term overload of 110°C (as opposed to PE-RT 70°C)
3. Aluminium core for low memory
4. Bends at 5 times pipe diameter
5. Light and flexible for ease of installation
