Rwc UIP4016A Sharkbite 3/4 in Cts X Pvc Push-to-connect Coupling

Product Description

The RWC UIP4016A is a 3/4-inch CTS x PVC brass push-to-connect transition coupling from the SharkBite product line. It connects iron pipe size PVC pipe to copper tube size copper, PEX, CPVC, or PE-RT tubing without soldering, glue, unions, or special tools. The white collar accommodates Schedule 40, 80, and 120 PVC pipe as well as Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 CPVC. The SharkBite push-to-connect end accepts PEX, CPVC, or PE-RT. Built from brass and rated for potable water distribution, this fitting is corrosion resistant and designed to perform in both accessible and concealed installations. A disconnect clip is included for removal and reinstallation flexibility.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a transition between PVC supply piping and flexible or copper tubing is required. Typical scenarios include transitions at water heater connections, under-slab conversions, or remodel work where existing PVC must meet new copper or PEX runs. Its ability to rotate on the pipe after installation makes it practical in tight or confined spaces where alignment adjustments are common. Licensed plumbers and experienced plumbing contractors are the primary installers for this type of transition fitting.
