Default Quick piping question?

Found a grey pipe- Merflex Pex. Researched it and nothing about being PB piping.

PEX is spelled "PEX". PB is spelled "PB".



“The things that will destroy America are peace at any price,
prosperity at any cost, safety first instead of duty first,
the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life.”
Theodore Roosevelt

Now you guys got me all confused again.
PolyPexylene or Pexabutylene.
I always get the 2 mixed up.
