Rwc UR016A 3/4 Inch Push-to-connect Brass Coupling

Product Description

The RWC UR016A is a SharkBite Max 3/4 inch push-to-connect straight brass coupling designed for fast, tool-free pipe connections in residential and commercial plumbing systems. The fitting uses a stainless-steel retainer and a re-engineered body that reduces insertion effort compared to first-generation SharkBite fittings while delivering a 250 psi pressure rating. No soldering, clamps, unions, glue, or special tools are required. The coupling weighs 0.19 pounds and is sold individually. Licensed plumbers and experienced plumbing contractors are the typical installers, though the tool-free design makes it accessible for qualified DIYers as well.

The UR016A is suited for both residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a permanent or adjustable straight coupling is needed. It connects 3/4 inch PEX, copper, CPVC, PE-RT, and HDPE pipe without requiring a PEX tube liner. The fitting can be rotated after installation for quick alignment adjustments. When a disconnect tool is used, the fitting can be removed and reused, making it a practical choice for retrofit work, repairs, and valve replacements where access is limited.
