Asked by jsung March 2, 2021Yes you can use this particular fitting from 3/4" PVC (on the white collar side) and either 3/4" copper, CPVC, PE-RT, r PEX (on the Tan Collar side).
removal of PVC from the coupling
Asked by Ron June 26, 2020Hello, To release SharkBite fitting part # UIP4020A from PVC pipe please follow the steps shown below using SharkBite disconnect clip part # UIP714A (SKU # 1001563242). Please note that pulling on the fitting or pipe prior to compressing the release collar will make removal more difficult. 1. Place the SharkBite disconnect clip around the pipe with the non-branded face against the white release collar. 2. Push the clip so that it compresses the release collar and then pull the pipe with a twisting action. 3. Check the fitting and pipe end for damage. The fitting and pipe should be free of damage, foreign objects and marks on the outside diameter. If the pipe is damaged or marked, then cut and use a new section of pipe. Below is a link to the spec sheet/installation instructions for this product. https://www.sharkbite.com/sites/default/files/migrate/SB_PVCFittings_SpecSheet_072715.pdf If you have additional questions please don't hesitate to reach out to our technical support department at 877-700-4242. Best regards,

Asked by Sunny June 2, 2020Hello, SharkBite fittings are approved for use in potable water and radiant/hydronic heating applications but are not suitable for use with gas. Model # UIP4008A is intended for use with Schedule 40/80/120 PVC or Schedule 80/120 CPVC on the white end of the fitting. The tan end of the fitting is suitable for use with any of the below types of pipe/tubing.

PEX (ASTM F876, CSA B137.5) Copper (ASTM B 88) CPVC (ASTM D 2846, CSA B137.6) PE-RT (ASTM F 2769) HDPE (SDR-9 ASTM D2737) Best Regards,
I just need a short section of brass pipe to transition from PVC piping to my Slip EB45 PRV. How ...
Asked by HDGr8te April 26, 2020One side of your Sharkbite fitting is for PVC pipe; so if by your question of you mean how long each side of your copper copper pipe needs to be - between the Sharkbite fitting & your Sharkbite PRV then this is what you will need: the end of copper tubing to be inserted into the Sharkbite PVC to copper coupling should be 1-1/8" of insertion. The end that is going into the Sharkbite PRV (pressure reducing valve) per detailed instructions is to be 1.32" (which loosely translates to just a hair bit over 1-5/16"). Then you'd need to add the distance you'd need between the end of the fitting & the PRV to make the full length of copper pipe you'd need.
Can this sharkbite fitting be used outdoors exposed?
Asked by rod January 14, 2020Hello, Yes, SharkBite fitting part # UIP4008A is suitable for outdoor exposed installations. It will be necessary to make sure to fully drain the fitting and surrounding pipework of water if freezing temperatures occur. If the fitting is going to be buried, it will be important to wrap it with SharkBite non-adhesive multi-purpose silicone wrap (SKU # 1001878046). If you have additional questions regarding the use of this product please feel free to contact our technical support department at 877-700-4242. Best Regards,
This fits on the copper side but is very loose on the pvc side. Is this common, obviously I think it is going to leak

If you have additional questions please feel free to contact our technical support department at 877-700-4242. PEX (ASTM F876, CSA B137.5) Copper (ASTM B 88) CPVC (ASTM D 2846, CSA B137.6) PE-RT (ASTM F 2769) HDPE (SDR-9 ASTM D2737) Best Regards,
Please confirm that the PVC connection is push to connect, you don't use glue right?
Asked by wekims April 18, 2019Correct. You'll need about and inch and a half of room to push the shark bite all of the way down onto the pipe you're connecting it to, and when you pull it back, that's when it creates it seal.
Will this work 3/4 schedule 40 pvc to 3/4 pex or is it just cpvc ?
Asked by Robert February 28, 2019Yes, this is the transition coupling to go from PVC to PEX, copper or CPVC. If you have further questions, please contact Customer Service M-F, 8am-5pm at (877) 700-4242.
