The fitting uses a push-to-connect mechanism on the two CTS ends and a slip connection on the PVC outlet, requiring no soldering, glue, or special tools. A tan collar on each CTS end accepts copper, PEX, CPVC, or PE-RT pipe, while the white collar center connection accepts Schedule 40, 80, or 120 PVC as well as IPS CPVC Schedule 40 and 80 pipe. Weighing 0.477 pounds, this fitting is sold as a single unit. Licensed plumbers and experienced pipefitters are the primary installers for this type of transition fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for residential and light commercial potable water distribution where an existing copper or CPVC line must be branched and transitioned to PVC. The slip feature is especially useful when cutting into an existing run of copper or CPVC pipe, allowing the installer to slip the fitting onto the cut pipe ends and complete the PVC branch without disturbing surrounding pipe supports. It is certified for underground installation and behind-wall applications without access panels, making it viable for rough-in work as well as retrofit service calls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePush-to-connect CTS ends accept copper, PEX, CPVC, or PE-RT pipe with no soldering or glue\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCenter slip outlet accepts Schedule 40, 80, or 120 PVC and IPS CPVC Schedule 40 and 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTan collar CTS ends and white collar PVC center clearly identify connection type at each port\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFitting rotates on pipe after installation to ease work in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDisconnect clip included for releasing fitting from pipe during installation or adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCertified for underground and behind-wall applications without access panels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eListed by IAPMO and certified to NSF\/ANSI 61, NSF\/ANSI 14, and NSF\/ANSI 372; meets UPC, IPC, and cUPC requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with copper, PEX, CPVC, and PE-RT pipe on the CTS ends.
