SACO AEI PEXIDAN® L/T-Flex Moisture-curable PE compound
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE)

Material Notes: PEXIDAN® L/T Flex is a medium density PEX system consisting of a silane grafted base-compound A- 1025 and a catalyst masterbatch CAT-003 and featuring much improved flexibility over high density PEX pipe materials. When mixed and extruded in the proper proportions, the two-component system results in a material that is crosslinkable by exposure to moisture or by immersion in hot water at 90-95°C. PEXIDAN® L/T Flex meets NSF International Standard 14 and ASTM F876 standard for non-potable water pressure pipe applications. The system is available in red, white, blue and natural, or can be colored at extrusion.
