Viega 32823 – 1/2" x 300' PEX Ultra Coil for Potable Water and Hydronic Applications
The Viega 32823 PEX Ultra Coil is a 1/2" nominal size cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) tubing supplied in a 300-foot coil. Designed for use in potable water distribution systems and closed-loop hydronic heating applications, this flexible tubing meets rigorous industry standards for temperature and pressure performance.
Manufactured to ASTM F876 and F877 specifications, this tubing is compatible with ASTM F1807, F2159, F1960, and F2080 fittings. The extended coil format minimizes the need for fittings, reducing potential leak points and installation time on the job.

Performance and Application:
Flexible Installation – The coil format supports long continuous runs with minimal fittings, ideal for slab, crawlspace, and overhead installations.
Corrosion Resistance – PEX tubing does not corrode, pit, or scale and resists dezincification, making it suitable for high-chlorine municipal water systems.
Pressure and Temperature Ratings – Certified for potable hot and cold water applications, radiant panel systems, and hydronic baseboard circuits.
Identification – Tubing is marked per code with relevant size, rating, and certification identifiers for field verification.
Installation Notes:
Joining Methods: Compatible with cold-expansion (F1960), crimp ring (F1807), clamp (F2098), or push-to-connect fittings certified for use with ASTM F876 tubing.
Support Requirements: Horizontal support spacing per code (typically 32" for 1/2") and adequate protection in areas of potential mechanical damage is required.
Code Compliance: Must be installed in accordance with local plumbing codes and Viega installation instructions.
