Just putting some chrome stop ends on PEX pipe and noticed that despite having the correct fitting inside the pipe, it still needs an olive on the pipe to grip it.. I thought you weren't ever supposed to use olives on plastic pipe? Confused
Use a pipe insert
Use a copper olive (softer than brass)
Do not use any jointing compound (PTFE tape ok if required)
Do not over tighten
Read the installation manual
