These plugs work exclusively with the PEX-A expansion method, requiring a PEX expansion tool and compatible expansion rings to form a secure mechanical connection. As the pipe memory relaxes after expansion, the fitting grips tighter over time, creating a reliable, long-lasting seal. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors install these fittings in residential and light commercial water distribution systems where PEX-A pipe is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese expansion plugs are approved for water service line applications and are rated for burial installations, including encasement in concrete. They are suited for new construction and retrofit plumbing projects where a dead-end cap is needed on a 1\/2-inch PEX-A line. The plugs are compatible with PEX-A pipe only and are not interchangeable with PEX-B or PEX-C pipe systems. Typical applications include capping rough-in stubs, isolating unused branches, and terminating buried service entries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlastic poly construction rated for water service and burial applications including concrete encasement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUses PEX-A expansion method — connection strengthens as pipe memory returns after expansion\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRequires PEX expansion tool and expansion rings for installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with PEX-A pipe only — not suitable for PEX-B or PEX-C\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as a 5-pack for multi-point or multi-unit installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with PEX-A pipe only.

Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting pipe or making any fitting connections. Expand the PEX-A pipe end using the appropriate expansion tool and ring before seating the plug. Do not use this fitting with PEX-B or PEX-C pipe, as the expansion connection method is not compatible with those pipe types.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Type Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: PEX-A only\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plastic Poly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 plugs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.24 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Water service lines, burial, concrete encasement\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: UA514A5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SHARKBITE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51562725802290,"sku":"UA514A5","price":36.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ef6bb3ee91fa5c06a47b079a5cd0ac56.jpg?v=1786483204","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sharkbite-cash-acme-ua514a5-pex-a-poly-plug-1-2-in-5-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
