Brian,
PEX says "PEX" on it. Could it have been polybutylene?
I've only seen that once before, but it sounds like what you describe. Anyone from PB country out there?

Hi Brian,
Are you sure what you were looking at was PEX, as QEST was one on the infamous PolyButylene brands ?? Do you have any pics ??
Funny 2 others were answering at the same time, here's a hint if it was grey and leaking it's PB, if it's grey and about to leak it's still PB.

Hi,
It's polybutylene pipe. No if ands or buts about it. Zurn, owner of the Qest brand, does make QestPex pipe, but the PB2110 identifies it as polybutylene. Now that that is cleared up. Get the information you need from pbpipe.com.
ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!!
