Constructed from lead-free DZR brass, this fitting provides a durable, low-cost termination point between PEX tubing and female NPT-threaded pipe or fixtures. The barb end accepts either a stainless steel clamp ring system or a copper crimp ring system, giving installers flexibility based on the tools available on the job. It is approved under ASTM F1807, NSF\/ANSI 61, and NSF 372, confirming suitability for potable water contact. Plumbers and mechanical contractors install this fitting in residential and light commercial systems where PEX meets threaded connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is suited for potable water distribution and hydronic heating applications. The barb configuration works with standard 3\/4-inch PEX tubing secured by stainless steel clamp rings or copper crimp rings using the appropriate pinch-clamp or ratchet-crimp tool. The FNPT-threaded end connects to standard female-threaded valves, manifolds, or fixture supply lines. It is commonly used in new construction plumbing, remodel work, and radiant heating distribution systems where a transition from PEX to threaded pipe is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free DZR brass construction meets NSF 372 low-lead requirements for potable water use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch barb end compatible with stainless steel clamp ring or copper crimp ring systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch FNPT-threaded end connects to standard female NPT valves, manifolds, and fixtures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCertified to ASTM F1807 and NSF\/ANSI 61 for potable water and hydronic heating service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact, single-piece design with no additional tools required beyond standard PEX clamp or crimp tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with potable water distribution and hydronic heating applications using 3\/4-inch PEX tubing.

Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before making any connections. Secure the barb end using the appropriate stainless steel clamp ring or copper crimp ring with a calibrated pinch-clamp or ratchet-crimp tool; do not attempt to seat the barb without the proper ring and tool. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the FNPT threads before making the threaded connection, and hand-tighten before final torque with a wrench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBarb Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches FNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead-free DZR brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.725 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM F1807, NSF\/ANSI 61, NSF 372\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00697285022409\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: UC088LFA5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RWC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344628973874,"sku":"UC088LFA5","price":29.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310551260.jpg?v=1782038420","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/rwc-uc088lfa5-3-4-in-barb-x-fip-brass-pex-adapter","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
