Advanced Connections. Clean System Performance.

Mayer PEX-a Slide is a high-performance cross-linked polyethylene system designed for potable water and heating applications where long-term reliability and system performance matter. Using a slide sleeve connection method, the system creates strong, secure joints with full-flow fittings and no internal o-rings at the connection point.

Built for flexibility and efficient installation, Mayer PEX-a Slide simplifies routing through walls, ceilings and confined spaces while maintaining clean hydraulic performance across the system. Now manufactured with lead-free components, it provides a durable, corrosion-free solution for compliant potable water installations across residential and commercial projects.

Relevant Fields of Application

Potable Water
Potable systems must protect water quality from source to tap. Materials need to be lead free, non-leaching, corrosion-resistant and built to meet recognised standards. Long-term reliability isn’t optional, it’s expected.
Rainwater Harvesting
Rainwater systems manage variable water quality and environmental exposure. Long-term durability and reliable jointing underpin effective reuse.
Non Potable & Process Water
Non-potable and process water systems still demand durability and fit-for-purpose design. Variable water quality and reuse applications require corrosion-resistant, reliable, cost-effective materials.
Industrial Piping
Industrial systems operate under pressure, temperature fluctuation and continuous load. Performance depends on corrosion resistance, material compatibility and compliance with recognised standards.
