Both extrusion groups have their advantages, but favoring either a co-extrusion or tandem design may depend on specific productivity and maintenance considerations. In the case of a PEX-Al-PEX construction, the adhesive plus outer layer extruded in tandem may prove more efficient in certain situations. Two separate single-layer heads makes cleaning and product changes quicker than with one dual layer head.
