Sharkbite/cash Acme 24984A Service Tee Stop 1/2x1/2x3/8 Inch

Product Description

The SHARKBITE/CASH ACME 24984A is a service tee stop designed to tap into existing supply lines without soldering or specialized tooling. It uses push-fit connection technology to allow a plumber to branch off a live supply line and add a fixture or appliance at the final stage of a project. The fitting measures 1/2 inch inlet by 1/2 inch run by 3/8 inch outlet, making it a standard size for residential supply line work. The push-fit design seats the fitting quickly and reliably, reducing labor time on straightforward add-on installations.

This service tee stop is used in residential and light commercial plumbing where a technician needs to add a branch connection to an existing 1/2 inch supply line. Common applications include connecting refrigerators, ice makers, dishwashers, bathroom fixtures, or other appliances that require a 3/8 inch outlet feed. It is suited for the rough-in or final trim phase of a plumbing project where speed and minimal pipe disruption are priorities. Licensed plumbers and experienced plumbing tradespeople are the typical installers.

Key Features

• Push-fit connection eliminates the need for soldering, crimping, or compression tools at the branch point
• 1/2 inch x 1/2 inch x 3/8 inch configuration covers common residential supply-to-fixture sizing
• Tee stop integrates shutoff functionality directly into the tee body, allowing individual fixture isolation
• Packaged in a quantity of 6 units per package, suitable for multi-fixture installs or stocking
• Designed for final-phase installation work where tapping into existing lines is required

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-fit replacement and add-on fitting for residential supply line systems using 1/2 inch supply pipe with a 3/8 inch outlet fixture connection.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the IPC. Shut off the main water supply and relieve line pressure before cutting into any existing supply pipe. Ensure the pipe end is cut cleanly and deburred before seating into the push-fit connection, as burrs or debris can compromise the seal. Do not exceed the pressure or temperature ratings specified for push-fit fittings in the applicable code jurisdiction.
