Product catalog summary
Introduction to PEX DZR Products
PEX DZR products are designed to offer exceptional resistance to corrosion, particularly in environments where standard brass materials fail to meet required standards. These products are laboratory tested for resistance according to the ISO6509 standard, making them ideal for use in conditions with water hardness, high temperatures, chlorides, and varying pH levels. They are also more cost-effective compared to bronze alternatives.
Understanding Dezincification
Dezincification is a form of corrosion that affects brass, especially under conditions of water hardness, high temperatures, and the presence of chlorides. DZR (Dezincification Resistant) brass is specially formulated to resist this type of corrosion. The production of DZR brass requires careful attention to composition and production parameters to ensure long-term durability. Each batch must pass the ISO 6509 dezincification resistance test to be classified as DZR brass.

PEX DZR manual-2

Why choose PEX DZR products? • exceptional resistance to corrosion where normal brasses do not meet required standards • laboratory tested for resistance to ISO6509 standard • ideal where water hardness, high water temperature, chlorides, acidity or alkalinity occur • more cost effective than bronze the DZR advantage Dezincification is the name given to the corrosion of brass The risk and rate of dezincication increases with water hardness, high water temperature, the presence of chlorides and when the acidity or alkalinity of water moves away from a PH of 7.
