This fitting is designed for use in potable water systems where a directional change is needed in the pipe run. It connects using the expansion method: a PEX expansion tool expands the pipe end and an expansion ring, which are then slid over the fitting. As the pipe recovers to its original size, it forms a secure, leak-resistant joint that tightens over time. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in new construction and retrofit plumbing systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is intended for 3\/4-inch PEX-A pipe only. It is not compatible with PEX-B or PEX-C pipe. Approved applications include domestic water service lines, in-slab burial, and underground installations including those encased in concrete. The poly construction resists corrosion and is suitable for both hot and cold water distribution lines in residential and light commercial settings. Each 5-pack provides enough fittings for a single rough-in scenario or multiple repair connections on a single job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch PEX-A compatible expansion-style 90-degree elbow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePoly body construction resists corrosion in buried and wet environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproved for water service lines and burial in concrete\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJoint strength increases as pipe memory returns around the fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-pack quantity reduces trips to the supply house on multi-connection jobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard PEX-A expansion tools and expansion rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible with PEX-A pipe only.

Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting and fitting. Follow local plumbing codes (IPC) for approved pipe burial depth, bedding material, and pressure testing requirements. Allow adequate time after expansion before pressurizing the system so the pipe memory joint can fully recover around the fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Type Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: PEX-A only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 90 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Poly (polyphenylene)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: PEX expansion with expansion rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApproved Applications\u003c\/strong\u003e: Water service lines, burial in concrete\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.9 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: UA256A5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SHARKBITE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51562396877106,"sku":"UA256A5","price":97.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/262c025abee28ce055eca3cf6f1cc63d.jpg?v=1786476313","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sharkbite-ua256a5-3-4-inch-pex-a-90-degree-elbow-5-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
