Some time ago I had a plumber install supply and vent plumbing prior to having a slab poured for a cottage I am building on my property. I am now in the final stages of this project and need help identifying a 3/4" cold water supply line. At the time of install, the plumber I hired did not have enough copper tubing on hand and installed something else. I have attached a couple pictures. I cannot find any writing on the tubing. Obviously I need to get the correct fittings so that I can complete the plumbing and test everything. Could this be pex? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi RGuild, That looks like SuperPex, which is a crimp PEX. Standard PEX fittings and crimp rings should be used. I've been using it for years and has a black inner coating as your pictures show.
