Sharkbite U120LFA4 Push-to-connect Mnpt Connector 1/2 in 4pk

Product Description

The SHARKBITE U120LFA4 is a 1/2 inch x 1/2 inch male NPT push-to-connect fitting sold in a 4-pack. It creates a leak-free mechanical joint between copper, CPVC, or PEX pipe in any combination without soldering, clamps, unions, or glue. Stainless steel teeth bite down on the pipe and grip firmly, while a specially formulated O-ring compresses to form a watertight seal. Licensed plumbers and experienced DIYers use this fitting to transition from push-to-connect tubing to threaded pipe connections quickly and reliably. The assembly can be rotated after installation to clear obstructions in confined spaces.

This connector is suited for residential and light commercial potable water supply lines and hydronic heating systems. It is commonly installed in tight mechanical spaces, under sinks, in utility rooms, and anywhere a tool-free threaded transition is needed. A disconnect tool allows the fitting to be removed and reused, making it practical for retrofit jobs and staged installations where connections may need to be revised before final inspection.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified mechanical contractors. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before making or breaking any connection.
