Rwc U3008LF Slip Coupling 1/2 Inch Push-fit Brass

Product Description

The RWC U3008LF is a 1/2-inch nominal brass slip coupling with a push-fit end style, manufactured under the SharkBite product line. Slip couplings are used to repair damaged or leaking pipe sections by allowing the fitting to slide fully onto the pipe, eliminating the need to cut out a fixed-length section. The push-fit connection system requires no soldering, clamps, or unions, making it well suited for rapid repairs on pressurized water lines. This fitting is lead-free construction, meeting modern potable water requirements. Plumbers and water service technicians are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

The U3008LF is designed for use in residential and light commercial plumbing systems where 1/2-inch pipe is present. Common applications include repair of copper, CPVC, and PEX supply lines in tight spaces or emergency service calls where flame-free connections are required. The slip design is particularly useful when a section of pipe must be replaced in place without cutting excessively long segments.

Key Features

• Push-fit end style allows tool-free, solder-free installation
• Slip coupling design slides fully onto pipe for in-place pipe repair
• 1/2-inch nominal size fits standard residential supply line dimensions

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipe fitters. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before cutting into any pipe. Ensure pipe ends are cut square, deburred, and clean before seating into the push-fit fitting. Verify local code acceptance of push-fit fittings for the intended application, as some jurisdictions restrict their use in concealed or inaccessible locations.
