Rwc U260LFA Sharkbite Max 1 In. Push-to-connect Brass Elbow

Product Description

The RWC U260LFA is a SharkBite Max 1-inch x 1-inch 90-degree push-to-connect brass elbow designed for fast, tool-free pipe connections in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. The fitting uses a stainless-steel retainer and a re-engineered body that reduces insertion effort compared to first-generation SharkBite fittings. It carries a 250 psi pressure rating and does not require a PEX tube liner. No soldering, clamps, unions, glue, or special tools are needed. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting when speed and reliability are both required on the job.

The U260LFA is suited for use in water supply systems where a 90-degree directional change is needed at a 1-inch line size. It is compatible with PEX, copper, CPVC, PE-RT, and HDPE pipe in both new construction and retrofit applications. The fitting can be rotated after installation for quick line adjustments. When removal is needed, a standard SharkBite disconnect tool releases the fitting cleanly, allowing it to be reused or repositioned. Typical install scenarios include supply manifold runs, riser connections, and under-slab or in-wall plumbing transitions.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before installing or removing any fitting. Cut pipe ends must be clean, square, and deburred to the full insertion depth marked on the pipe before pushing into the fitting. Use only a manufacturer-approved disconnect tool for removal — do not attempt to pull the fitting free by force.
