Sized at 1\/2 inch by 1\/2 inch, this fitting requires no soldering, glue, crimping, or special tools — the pipe seats with a single push. A green visual indicator confirms a proper, leak-free connection without guesswork. The fitting body is molded from Acudel plastic, a material selected for its toughness, chemical resistance, anti-decay stability, and dimensional stability under temperature and pressure cycling. Each order includes a pack of 6 couplings. Licensed plumbers and experienced plumbing contractors are the typical installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe K008A fits into PEX-only rough-in systems where speed and consistency matter. It is well-suited to new residential construction and remodel work where running continuous PEX throughout a home is the goal. The tool-free connection method reduces the risk of installation errors and potential leak points that can result from improper crimps or soldered joints. Because no open flame or power tools are required, the fitting can be installed in tight spaces and finished wall cavities without additional fire-blocking or tool-access concerns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePush-to-connect design — no soldering, glue, crimping, or special tools required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with PEX pipe only; not for use with copper, CPVC, or other pipe types\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGreen visual indicator confirms full pipe insertion and a leak-free seat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAcudel plastic construction provides chemical resistance and long-term dimensional stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces installation errors common to crimp and solder methods\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a pack of 6 — convenient for whole-home rough-in projects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1\/2 inch PEX pipe only.

Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting pipe or seating the fitting. Cut PEX pipe squarely and deburr the end before pushing into the fitting; an angled or burred cut can prevent full seating and cause leaks. Verify the green visual indicator is fully visible before pressurizing the system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch x 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Push-to-connect\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Pipe Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: PEX only\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Acudel plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.28 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SHARKBITE\/CASH ACME\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: K008A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SHARKBITE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51561676603698,"sku":"K008A","price":38.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2d3853f3d4c2e8fd735b2ed61cac608d.jpg?v=1786467587","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sharkbite-cash-acme-k008a-evopex-pex-coupling-1-2-inch-6-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
