Sharkbite U058LFA 3/4x1/2 Lead Free Reducing Coupling 12PK

Product Description

The SHARKBITE CASH ACME U058LFA is a lead-free reducing coupling designed for fast, tool-free connections in potable and hydronic water distribution systems. Built from DZR (dezincification-resistant) brass, this push-fit fitting accepts a 3/4-inch inlet and reduces to a 1/2-inch outlet. It is rated to 200 psi and 200 degrees F, making it suitable for a wide range of residential and light commercial plumbing applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting without soldering, crimping, or clamps. An integral tube liner is included, ensuring secure engagement across compatible pipe types.

This fitting is designed for use with copper tubing (CTS), CPVC, and PEX pipe. The push-fit mechanism allows for rapid installation in tight spaces, retrofit work, and repair scenarios where open flame or specialized tools are not practical. Certified for underground applications as a manufactured joint, it does not require an access panel, which simplifies below-grade or in-wall installations. This SKU is sold as a bagged pack of 12 units, suitable for stocking a service vehicle or completing a multi-fixture rough-in.
