Sharkbite/cash Acme K120A6 Evopex Male Adapter 1/2 in 6-pack

Product Description

The SHARKBITE/CASH ACME K120A6 is a push-to-connect Evopex male brass adapter fitting designed for fast, tool-free plumbing connections in residential water supply systems. Sold in a pack of six, each 1/2-inch fitting is constructed from high-performance polymer with brass adapter components and delivers strong chemical and chloramine resistance. The push-to-connect mechanism eliminates soldering, gluing, crimping, and special tools. A built-in visual indicator confirms proper seating of the pipe, reducing installation error. Maximum rated temperature is 200 degrees F and maximum rated pressure is 160 psi.

The K120A6 is suited for residential plumbing installations where speed and reliability are priorities. Plumbers and pipefitters use these fittings to connect 1/2-inch pipe runs without calibration tools or compression rings. The Evopex design removes the risk of leaks caused by nicks or damage to the fitting exterior, making it a practical choice for whole-home plumbing or retrofit work in tight spaces where torch access is limited or restricted.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before fitting installation. Ensure pipe ends are cut square, deburred, and clean before inserting into the fitting to achieve a proper seal. Consult local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC) for approved fitting types and pressure ratings in your jurisdiction.
