Rwc U335LFA Sharkbite Brass Push-to-connect Elbow 1/2 in

Product Description

The RWC U335LFA is a SharkBite push-to-connect hi-ear brass elbow, configured as a 1/4 bend with 1/2-inch by 1/2-inch connections. It joins pipe runs at a 90-degree angle without solder, clamps, or glue, making it a fast, reliable fitting for plumbing service and repair work. The brass body is rated to 200 psi and 200 degrees F, and it is certified to IAPMO IGC 188 and ANSI/NSF-61 for use in potable water systems. Licensed plumbers and experienced service technicians install this fitting in both residential and light commercial applications.

This elbow is designed for use with O.D.-controlled copper, CPVC, and PEX pipe. The push-to-connect mechanism accepts the pipe with a single push and grips it with an internal stainless-steel bite ring, creating a watertight seal without heat or special tools. It meets UPC, IPC, and CUPC requirements, making it suitable for potable water distribution and hydronic heating water systems in jurisdictions that require code-compliant fittings.

Installation Notes

Licensed plumbers install this fitting in accordance with the IPC or UPC, depending on the local jurisdiction. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before making connections.
