Hi Everyone -- Using Uponor PEX tubing, I terminated 4 1/2" lines onto a copper manifold. I did this with two manifolds...one for the hot lines and one for the cold lines. Inspecting the lines, all of the cold 1/2" terminations are fine...but, 3 of the 4 hot 1/2" lines on the manifold, have visible cracks near the ring.
To terminate the lines, I'm using the Milwaukee tool, Uponor rings, and a Sioux Chief ProPex manifold.
Is this particular roll of Uponor tubing defective? Does PEX not behave well when being terminated in a cold basement (53 F)?
