The item in my kit
I bought EFIELD Half-Inch PEX-B Tubing Kit as part of my camper van equipment.
I bought the EFIELD kit with my water-system materials. The early tank-opening plan in my diary is the starting point for arranging the later tubing routes inside the van.
Where it fits my build
My Day 87 plan put the body openings ahead of the aluminum framing, flooring and wall panels. I specifically included the shower drain and the openings for three water tanks in that order of work.
I removed cargo tie-down hardware to leave mounting points for the extrusion framing, and removed door trim for the later insulation and paneling. SketchUp helped me plan how those separate jobs would fit together.

My build notes
The useful part of this diary entry is the sequence. I wanted to finish the drilling while the interior metal was bare, so later work would not mean opening finished surfaces again.
The photographs show my preceding floor-preparation session. Sweeping, washing and removing residue created the starting point for the interior work I described next.
I planned the openings and mounting access before enclosing the interior.
Alternative products
Two alternatives to compare
The long white SharkBite coil offers tubing without the full tool-and-fitting kit. The shorter blue coil suits a smaller quantity of tubing, so both alternatives change what is included as well as the roll length.
SharkBite White PEX-B Coil
This white half-inch PEX-B tubing comes in a long coil. The plain tubing format leaves fittings and assembly tools as separate purchases.
