Polymer Fittings
EVERLOC+ polymer fittings are available in couplings, tees, elbows,
multi-port tees and plugs. All polymer fittings are produced from a
polyphenylsulfone (PPSU) material that meets the requirements of
NSF61 for health effects of drinking water system components and
complies with the lead-free requirements of the U.S. Safe Drinking
Water Act. See also REHAU Technical Bulletin TB265 EVERLOC+
Polymer Fitting Material - PPSU.
Lead Free (LF) Brass Fittings
EVERLOC+ LF brass fittings are available as couplings, tees, elbows,
plugs and transition fittings to NPT thread and copper solder
connections. All metal fittings are produced from ECO BRASS
(UNS69300 or CW724R) that meets the requirements of NSF61 for
health effects of drinking water system components and complies
with the lead-free requirements of the U.S. Safe Drinking Water Act.

PEXa Compression Sleeves
EVERLOC+ compression sleeves are produced using a specially
formulated PEXa material and are designed specifically for use with
EVERLOC+ fittings and RAUPEX pipe. EVERLOC+ compression
sleeves have the following features:
- Co-extruded platinum-colored PE coating
- Squarely cut ends that can be slid over the pipe in either direction
- Grooved and roughened inside surface for locking the sleeve into
place once slid over the pipe and fitting
Packaging, Handling, Storage
EVERLOC+ fittings and sleeves are shipped in cardboard boxes to
protect them from sunlight, rain, dirt and other hazards. Keep the
products in the original packaging until they are required for installa-
tion. Return unused products to the packaging for storage.
®
Fittings and sleeves must be handled with care. At a minimum, avoid
the following:
- Storing loose fittings in tool boxes
- Contact with oil or petroleum-based products, adhesives, paints,
solvents, oxidizing agents or other aggressive chemicals or products
- Exposure of polymer fittings and PEXa sleeves to soldering or any
open flame
- Excessive or permanent exposure to sunlight of polymer fittings and
PEXa sleeves
NOTICE
Exposing the EVERLOC+ compression-sleeve system to oil or
petroleum-based products, adhesives, paints, solvents, oxidizing
agents or other aggressive chemicals or products can damage the
compression-sleeve system and result in leaking and property
damage. See Installation Considerations for further information.
