Sharkbite U314LFA 3/4 in Push Fit X Fnpt 90 Degree Elbow

Product Description

The SHARKBITE/CASH ACME U314LFA is a 3/4-inch push-fit by female NPT (FNPT) 90-degree elbow fitting designed for fast, tool-free pipe connections in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. The push-fit end accepts copper, CPVC, or PEX pipe and locks on contact via stainless steel gripping teeth, while a specially formulated O-ring compresses to create a watertight seal. No soldering, clamps, unions, or glue are required. Licensed plumbers and experienced DIYers use this fitting to make right-angle transitions to any threaded female connection quickly and reliably. A separate disconnect tool allows the fitting to be removed and reused without damaging the pipe.

This elbow is suited for residential potable water systems, radiant heating supply lines, and light commercial plumbing where 3/4-inch pipe meets a threaded female port at a 90-degree angle. It handles copper, CPVC, and PEX pipe in any combination at the push-fit end, making it especially useful in retrofit and repair work where mixed piping materials are already present. The FNPT threaded end connects directly to valves, fixtures, manifolds, and other threaded components. Sold in a package of 6 units.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified tradesperson. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting into existing pipe. Ensure pipe ends are cut square, deburred, and clean before inserting into the push-fit end. Follow local plumbing codes, including IPC requirements, for approved fitting types and applications with potable water or hydronic systems.
