Assembly10.1 Crimp JointsInsert fittings shall be joined to PEX tubing by the compression of a copper crimp ring around the outercircumference of the tubing forcing the tubing material into annular spaces formed by ribs

34、on the fitting. Insert fittings and crimprings shall meet the dimensional and material requirements of this standard. PEX tubing shall meet the requirements ofSpecificationsSpecification F876 or F3253. The dimensions and out-of-roundness of the crimp ring after it has been crimped shallbe in accorda

35、nce with Table 1.10.1.1 Crimping ProcedureTo affix the insert fitting to the tubing with the crimp ring, the crimping procedure shall be asfollows: slide the crimp ring onto the tubing, insert the ribbed end of the fitting into the end of the tubing until the tubing contactsthe shoulder of the fitti

36、ng or tube stop. The crimp ring shall then be positioned on the tubing so the edge of the crimp ring contactsthe shoulder of the fitting or tube stop. The jaws of the crimping tool shall be centered over the crimp ring and the tool shall beheld so that the crimping jaws are approximately perpendicul

37、ar to the axis of the barb. The jaws of the crimping tool shall be closedaround the crimp ring, compressing the crimp ring onto the tubing.The crimp ring shall not be crimped more than once. Each crimpshall be checked to determine conformance to the after crimped dimensional requirements of Table 1.
