The fitting features a 3\/4-inch barb on one end and a 1\/2-inch barb on the other, allowing a direct transition between the two common PEX sizes. It is rated testable to well over 100 psi immediately after installation. Manufactured from lead free brass, the wetted surface contains less than 0.25% lead by weight, satisfying AB1953 California and VT S152 Vermont low-lead restrictions. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in residential and light commercial plumbing applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coupling is suited for potable water distribution lines where a 3\/4-inch PEX run reduces to 1\/2-inch PEX at a branch or fixture connection. It is compatible with cinch-clamp installation using TV 608-826 clamps and TV 608-743 cinch tool on the 3\/4-inch barb end, and TV 608-933 clamps with the same TV 608-743 cinch tool on the 1\/2-inch barb end. Copper crimp rings and a standard crimp tool are also an accepted installation method. Typical applications include hydronic branch lines, domestic hot and cold supply, and in-wall or under-slab PEX runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead free brass construction — wetted surface contains less than 0.25% lead by weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch x 1\/2-inch reducing barb configuration for direct PEX-to-PEX size transition\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImmediately testable to well over 100 psi after installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with cinch-clamp method (TV 608-826, TV 608-933, TV 608-743) or copper crimp rings and crimp tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets NSF\/ANSI Standard 14-2009 and ASTM F 1807 for potable water transport products\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompliant with ANSI\/NSF Standard 61 Annex G, AB1953 California, and VT S152 Vermont low-lead restrictions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 3\/4-inch and 1\/2-inch cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) tubing.

Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting into existing PEX runs. Ensure the correct clamp or crimp ring size is matched to each barb end — 3\/4-inch hardware on the 3\/4-inch end and 1\/2-inch hardware on the 1\/2-inch end — before applying the cinch or crimp tool. Do not mix clamp styles on the same fitting without verifying tool and ring compatibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead Free Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size (Large End)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches barb\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size (Small End)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches barb\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTubing Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cross-Linked Polyethylene (PEX)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Well over 100 psi (immediately testable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Content (Wetted Surface)\u003c\/strong\u003e: Less than 0.25% by weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.86 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications\u003c\/strong\u003e: NSF\/ANSI 14-2009, ASTM F 1807, ANSI\/NSF 61 Annex G, AB1953, VT S152\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: UC058LFA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SHARKBITE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51557806670130,"sku":"UC058LFA","price":33.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/797f337d3c67558399d6d763941810ee.jpg?v=1786395746","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sharkbite-cash-acme-uc058lfa-barb-coupling-3-4-x-1-2-pex","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
