Rwc UC600LFA Sharkbite 1/2 in Female Sweat Pex Barb Adapter

Product Description

The RWC UC600LFA is a SharkBite PEX barb sweat female adapter designed to connect copper sweat (female) pipe to PEX tubing in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. Constructed from lead-free DZR brass, this fitting resists dezincification and corrosion in potable water environments. It accepts both a stainless steel clamp system and a copper crimp ring system on the PEX side, giving installers flexibility based on available tooling. The female sweat end connects to standard copper pipe. This adapter is rated for potable water distribution and hydronic heating applications, meeting ASTM F1807, NSF/ANSI 61, and NSF 372 standards.

This fitting is used in residential and light commercial water distribution systems where a transition from copper pipe to PEX tubing is required. It is well suited for hydronic radiant heating installations and potable water supply lines. Installers working in new construction or retrofit applications use this adapter to make reliable, pressure-rated transitions without soldering on the PEX side. Clamp rings and crimp rings are sold separately.
