The barb end seats into the PEX tubing and is secured with cinch clamps or copper crimp rings using the appropriate installation tooling. The fitting is immediately testable to well over 100 psi once installed, making it suited for pressure-verification workflows on potable water systems. Licensed plumbers install this fitting in residential and light commercial water distribution applications wherever PEX transitions to threaded iron pipe connections are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is used in PEX-based potable water distribution systems where a 1\/2-inch PEX line must terminate or transition into a 3\/4-inch female iron pipe thread (FIP) port on a valve, manifold, fixture, or fitting. It is appropriate for both new construction rough-in and retrofit work. The lead-free brass construction meets California AB1953 and Vermont VT S152 low-lead restrictions, making it compliant for potable water use in all U.S. jurisdictions with low-lead mandates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction with less than 0.25% lead by weight on all wetted surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch barb insert end for cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch male pipe thread (MPT) outlet for connection to FIP fittings or pipe ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImmediately pressure-testable to well over 100 psi after installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with cinch clamp method (TV 608-933 clamps and TV 608-743 tool) or copper crimp ring method\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets NSF\/ANSI 14-2009, ASTM F1807, and ANSI\/NSF 61 Annex G for potable water service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1\/2-inch cross-linked polyethylene PEX tubing and 3\/4-inch female iron pipe thread (FIP) fittings, valves, or pipe ends on potable water systems.

Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting and fitting the PEX tubing. Slide the cinch clamp or crimp ring onto the PEX tubing before inserting the barb end fully into the tube, then position the clamp or ring per tool manufacturer specifications and complete the crimp or cinch. Thread the MPT end into the FIP fitting by hand first, then tighten with a wrench — do not overtighten brass threads into FIP connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBarb End Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread End Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches MPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male Pipe Thread (MPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead-Free Brass\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\u003eTest Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Well over 100 psi\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.98 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 F1807, ANSI\/NSF 61 Annex G, AB1953 (California), VT S152 (Vermont)\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: UC116LFA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SHARKBITE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51558126813490,"sku":"UC116LFA","price":51.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3831b0b0b9e431862a6dd8b9f7b55f78.jpg?v=1786404155","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sharkbite-cash-acme-uc116lfa-1-2-barb-x-3-4-mpt-pex-adapter","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
