Product Details

SharkBite 1/2 in. Push-to-Connect x FIP Brass Adapter Fitting is the fastest way to connect PEX, Copper, CPVC, PE-RT, or HDPE pipe in any combination. No soldering, clamps, unions, glue, or special tools required. Simply insert the pipe and the teeth bite down and grip tight, while a specially formulated O-ring compresses to create a watertight seal. Changes can easily be made by rotating the fitting after installation. Removing the fitting is just as fast using a disconnect tool so fittings and valves can be easily changed or reused. Designed with stainless steel gripping teeth for a secure connection, chlorine-resistant O-ring for a long-lasting seal and backed by a 25-year warranty.

          Great for connecting to threaded pipe and adding PEX. Used this to create thermal break in spigot water line. Allowed me to easily convert from threaded copper to PEX without calling a plumber.

          I have found the various SharkBite fittings to be really easy to use. I have now done two projects with them that involved connecting copper to copper, copper to PEX, and PEX to PEX. The SharkBite fittings can handle all of these combinations. They are expensive but they are worth it.

            I used this Shark Bite to connect a new pipe and faucet I had to install. The Shark Bite made the connection of the new pipe to the old copper pipe easy. The Shark Bite screwed right on the new pipe and then it was just a little push of the old copper pipe into the Shark Bite and the whole job was finished. No messy soldering. No fire risk from using a torch. This was the first time I ever used a Shark Bite. The whole job only took about an hour from old pipe removal to finished new pipe installed. Thank you.

            I had bought a plastic off brand last year for my copper connection for my shower. When I replaced the shower it broke getting it off, this shark bite went on easy, no leaks and won't break. I love it.
