Rwc UR248A4 Sharkbite Max Brass 90 Deg Elbow 1/2 in 4-pack

Product Description

The RWC UR248A4 is a SharkBite Max push-to-connect brass 90-degree elbow fitting, sold in a 4-pack, designed for fast, tool-free pipe connections in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. The redesigned stainless-steel retainer delivers a 250 psi pressure rating and requires roughly half the insertion effort of first-generation SharkBite fittings. The re-engineered body accepts pipe without a PEX tube liner, eliminating one common prep step. No soldering, clamps, unions, glue, or special tools are needed. Once installed, the fitting can be rotated for quick directional adjustments and removed with a standard disconnect tool for reuse or replacement.

This 1/2-inch x 1/2-inch quarter-bend elbow is suited for residential potable water distribution and hydronic applications where a 90-degree direction change is required. It is compatible with PEX, copper, CPVC, PE-RT, and HDPE pipe, making it a versatile choice for repair work, new installation, and retrofit jobs where mixed pipe materials are present. The 4-pack configuration supports multi-connection runs or stocking common sizes on a service vehicle.

Key Features

• 250 psi pressure rating for increased burst resistance over first-generation fittings

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified trades following local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before making or breaking any connection. Ensure pipe ends are cut square, deburred, and cleaned to the depth mark before insertion. Use a manufacturer-approved disconnect clip or disconnect tool when removing the fitting — do not attempt removal without the proper tool, as this can damage the retainer and pipe.
