    I used PEX for my entire shop. Super simple, materials are cheap and available anywhere, from small corner hardware store or big box store (Home Depot or Lowes)
    Plus you can pick your line color - blue or red or white (if that kind of thing matters to you)

    I used 1"black pipe to run all my lines in my old shop but the price of that now is astronomical so that's out lol I have multiple blast cabinets running and need atleast a 1" pipe everyone says pex but I've heard some bad things about pex for shop air so I'm unsure what I should look at

      Pex is a no go for airlines. It’s not rated for that high of pressure. Pvc is dangerous. Black pipe is to expensive and time consuming to install and not flexible or easy to change if you need to add a drop. This type of airline is by far the best option. Do it right, do it once

      PEX works just fine. It’s rated for 160 PSI. The RapidAir system is rated for 150 PSI, so PEX rates higher for pressure. Plus the PEX fittings are way cheaper and available anywhere. So much simpler going with PEX.

      @@BillMacfarlane At 3:09 in the video you can see the first pipe he picks up, printed on the pipe, is rated at 16 bar. 16 bar = 232.06 psi. Don't know if that would be operating or burst pressure.

    Bro at my work, this literally happened, PCV elbow pop! Sounded like a machine exploded.
    Half of warehouse have no air. Luckily it happened on the far end corner. So yea either change out your pvc every 5-10 yrs or go wi to better product like this video

      Yep, pvc is super dangerous, guaranteed to leek at some point, it’s just not worth it to use PVC pipe for airlines
