Water hammer tubes like that are outdated. They fill with water in a week or two and don't do anything but trap stagnant water.
@mpxz999
1/2" Aquapex (Uponor Pex-A) should be 5 expansions, and the expander head should be going in straight and evenly into the tube / expansion ring; upon which, the tube will reach the shoulder of the 1/2" expansion head. The majority of Pex-A leaks are due to people using Pex-B fittings, or no-name knock-off china Pex-A fittings. Improper tool usage, or using a tool without a rotating expansion head, would be the cause for the rest of the leaks. Also, the Blue and Red Aquapex has manufacturing issues and should be avoided. The clear/white Aquapex has had no issues.

Air hammers should be made with a sliding divider to hold air, keep water from getting stagnant.

"Hey boy, you better watch that water hammer"
@themisfitter1767
compared to the other available types of PEX, Uponor is the best. Here is why: the Inner Diameter of the pipe with fittings is 1/2", not 3/8". The other types chokes the water down at each fitting.

Finally... the pipe stretcher!
@Tennessee_Plumbing
gotta love Uponor.. been using it for over a decade and it never dissapoints.
@AvengingFade
OMG that is X rated! This shouldn’t be available for just anyone to watch!
@danielreines6187
Do you really just leave it like that and the plastic will shrink into a water tight fitting?
@VamooseRooter
Would you be interested in 7 clicks for 1/2”?
@Toasthero99
I have used Uponor for several years and its the standard where i live. But i switched over to Sanipex and its the Rolls Royce of pex systems. You get the security of Uponor and the conveniance of a compression fitting. Super easy to install and service. Pluss you dont need batteries and no noise🦾
@rieleyduysen17
finally a video of someone using good pex. too many people crimping
@saywhat6632
Seems like a slower process than crimping rings, to be honest. Definitely prefer my Milwaukee propress/ with copper & pex heads
@toddsimpson8690
Friend is finishing up recalled PB water replacement. His system had all those plastic tees were breaking upstairs and flooding his flat. Whats your experience. I prefer brass fittings here.
@Rellikman
I heard there’s a problem with these kinds of fasteners on uponor plumbing that they crack and leak. Has this been resolved as I like this better than the clamping o rings?
@danielgravely5351
The air pockets after time will turn all into water and will not help with air hammering
@allenkotlan3606
1st contact with water snd the whole extension will blown into the wall cavity.
@geraldhague6170
Here another tip if u do not have a tool like that dip the nylon pipe in very hot water it will soften up
@Cidney777
Electric or battery powered
