Unlike a standard coupling, a slip fitting has a stop on only one end, allowing the opposite end to slide freely over the pipe. This design lets a single fitting do the work of two couplings plus a cut-in pipe section, reducing the scope of a burst pipe or leak repair. Rated at 200 degrees F and 200 psi, the U3020LFA is built from one-piece DZR brass and meets NSF-61, IAPMO, and UPC certification requirements. A disconnect clip is included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is intended for use on copper pipe only. It suits residential and light commercial plumbing repairs where a section of pipe has failed due to a burst, pinhole leak, or freeze damage. The push-to-connect design allows a licensed plumber or qualified plumbing technician to complete the repair without soldering, making it well suited for tight spaces or situations where open flame is restricted. Fittings can be installed in concealed locations, including burial and behind drywall, and are removable and reusable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlip design — one free-sliding end eliminates the need for additional couplings or cut-in pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePush-to-connect installation requires no solder, crimping, or special tooling beyond the included disconnect clip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne-piece DZR brass construction resists dezincification in aggressive water conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated to 200 degrees F and 200 psi for reliable performance in residential and light commercial systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertified to NSF-61, IAPMO, and UPC standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproved for concealed installations including burial and behind-drywall locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead content does not exceed 0.25 percent weighted average on wetted surfaces, meeting federal lead-free requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1-inch copper pipe only.

Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure completely before cutting out the damaged pipe section. Ensure pipe ends are cut square, deburred, and clean before inserting into the fitting. To remove the fitting, use the included disconnect clip or a compatible push-to-connect disconnect tool and slide the fitting free — do not force or pry the connection apart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Push-to-connect slip coupling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: One-piece DZR brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Pipe Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Content\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 percent maximum weighted average on wetted surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications\u003c\/strong\u003e: NSF-61, IAPMO, UPC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.584 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each, individually bagged\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: RWC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: U3020LFA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RWC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51342723580210,"sku":"U3020LFA","price":42.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310551220.jpg?v=1782004737","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/rwc-u3020lfa-sharkbite-1-in-brass-slip-repair-coupling","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
