It creates a 3\/4-inch branch off a 1\/2-inch by 1\/2-inch run, allowing plumbers to split or redirect PEX tubing lines without soldering or threading. The fitting is manufactured from brass and meets the lead-free threshold of less than 0.25 percent lead by weight on wetted surfaces. Connections are made using stainless steel cinch clamps installed with a compatible cinch tool. The UC408LFA is sold in a package of 12 units, making it practical for multi-fixture rough-in work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is used in potable water distribution systems where PEX tubing is the pipe material of choice. It is suited for both hot and cold water lines, including recirculating hot water systems where chlorinated water up to 140 degrees Fahrenheit circulates continuously. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting during new construction and remodel work. It is compatible with SDR-9 dimensional standard PEX tubing and is appropriate for use in states with strict low-lead requirements, including California and Vermont.\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 percent lead by weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCreates a 3\/4-inch branch off a 1\/2-inch by 1\/2-inch PEX run\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with SDR-9 dimensional standard PEX tubing per ASTM F-876 and ASTM F-877\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNSF CL-R certified for use in hot water systems with chlorinated water up to 140 degrees Fahrenheit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets NSF 14 and NSF 61 standards for potable water systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eComplies with AB1953 California and VT S152 Vermont low-lead restrictions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as a package of 12 fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with PEX tubing connected using stainless steel cinch clamps and cinch tool TV 608-743.
