I have about 6 metres of 22mm PEX to run through concrete and understand I need to have it in flexible conduit to offer a bit of protection and allow the pipe to expand.

Is this the stuff you guys would use or are there other alternative products?

If so does this mean internal dimensions is suited for 22mm?

Thanks very much in advance šŸ˜Š
 
Any sort of conduit will do, as long as the pipe fits inside it.
You may want to go larger size conduit just incase you have to replace the pipe down the track.

You could even used solid conduit or even drainage pipe.
Anything to keep the concrete off the pipe
 
Itā€™s 32mm dia according to one review
 
I've use conduit from suppliers for fish ponds they do 32 mm and 38 mm upwards
