Crimp Ring Configuration
Copper Ring
The ring is precision formed from copper to provide consistent compression around compatible PEX tubing and fitting connections.
Mechanical Crimp Connection
A calibrated PEX crimp tool compresses the ring around the tubing and fitting barb to create a secure mechanical connection.
Go/No-Go Verification
After crimping, the completed connection can be checked with the appropriate go/no-go gauge to help verify proper tool compression.
Construction Details
Midland PEX Copper Crimp Rings are precision formed from durable copper to provide consistent compression and dependable mechanical fastening in compatible PEX piping systems.
When positioned correctly over PEX tubing and compressed with a properly calibrated crimp tool, the ring applies uniform pressure around the tubing and fitting barb to create a secure connection.
Proper ring sizing, fitting compatibility, tool calibration, ring placement, and connection verification are important for dependable long-term performance.
