Rwc U3008LFA Sharkbite 1/2 in Brass Slip Repair Coupling

Product Description

The RWC U3008LFA is a 1/2-inch push-to-connect brass slip repair coupling designed to repair burst pipes and active leaks without soldering, threading, or special tools. One end features a fixed stop while the opposite end slides freely over the pipe, allowing the fitting to compress into place over a damaged section. Once connected, the fitting can be released and repositioned using a standard disconnect tool. Constructed from one-piece DZR brass, this coupling is rated for service up to 200 degrees F and 200 psi, making it suitable for demanding residential and light commercial plumbing applications.

This coupling is intended for use with copper pipe only. It is well suited for repair work in tight spaces, wall cavities, and buried installations. The slip design eliminates the need for additional pipe sections or multiple standard couplings when making an inline repair. A disconnect clip is included with each fitting. The coupling is individually bagged and sold per each.

Designed for use with 1/2-inch copper pipe only. Certified and listed under UPC, IAPMO, and NSF-61 standards for potable water applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified trade professionals. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before beginning any pipe repair. Ensure pipe ends are clean, deburred, and free of corrosion before inserting into the fitting. To remove or reposition the fitting, use a properly sized push-to-connect disconnect tool — do not force or pry the fitting without releasing the internal collet.
