Rwc U274LFA Sharkbite Reducing Brass Elbow 3/4x1/2 in

Product Description

The RWC U274LFA is a SharkBite push-to-connect reducing brass elbow designed to make a 90-degree directional change while transitioning from a 3/4-inch line to a 1/2-inch line. The fitting connects without soldering, crimping, or gluing, making it a fast and reliable choice for licensed plumbers and experienced DIYers working on water distribution systems. It is rated to 200 psi and 200 degrees F, and it carries IAPMO IGC 188 and ANSI/NSF 61 certifications with a low-lead brass construction. Compatible with OD-controlled copper, CPVC, and PEX tubing, this elbow covers the most common pipe types found in residential and light commercial plumbing.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial water supply applications where a reducing 90-degree turn is needed between 3/4-inch and 1/2-inch pipe runs. Typical installation scenarios include branch lines off a main distribution line, fixture supply connections, and repair or retrofit work where torch access is limited or not desirable. The push-to-connect design allows the fitting to be installed quickly on copper, CPVC, or PEX without special tools beyond a pipe cutter and deburring tool.
