Rwc U286LFA 3/4 in Push-to-connect 90 Deg Mnpt Brass Elbow

Product Description

The RWC U286LFA is a 90-degree push-to-connect male NPT brass elbow designed for fast, tool-free connections in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. The push-to-connect end accepts 3/4-inch OD-controlled copper, CPVC, or PEX tubing without soldering, crimping, or threading. The 3/4-inch MNPT end threads directly into standard female NPT fittings. Built from low-lead brass with no more than 0.25 percent weighted average lead content on wetted surfaces, this elbow meets potable water system requirements. It is rated for pressures up to 200 psi and temperatures up to 200 degrees F.

This elbow is suited for residential and light commercial water supply lines where a 90-degree direction change is needed at a threaded transition point. Common applications include connecting PEX tubing runs to threaded valves, manifolds, or fixture shut-offs. The push-to-connect design allows installers to complete connections quickly in tight spaces without a torch or crimp tool, making it a practical choice for repairs and new installations on copper, CPVC, and PEX systems.
