I was just thinking about the tool used for the fitting and installation and it is an expansion tool rather than crimping. The tool is required to be used six times in the end of the pipe before the fitting is attached. Due to the expansion/contraction properties of the pex, it shrinks back down onto the fitting, making a water tight seal. I watched my plumber do this multiple times. I'd look at a bunch of YouTube videos to see what I mean.
