This fitting connects PEX-A tubing to threaded female NPT ports using an expansion-style joint, which requires a compatible PEX expansion tool and the appropriate expansion rings to complete the connection. Constructed from lead-free, dezincification-resistant brass, the UAB088LFA meets the material requirements for drinking water applications. It is sold in a package of 12 fittings and is intended for installation by licensed plumbers working on residential or light commercial water distribution piping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is used where PEX-A supply piping transitions to a threaded female NPT connection, such as at valves, manifolds, water heaters, or fixture shutoffs. The expansion fitting method creates a strong, reliable joint as the expanded PEX-A pipe and ring contract around the fitting body after the connection is made. This fitting is strictly for use with PEX-A pipe and is not compatible with PEX-B or PEX-C tubing. Applications include new construction rough-in and repipe work in potable cold and hot water lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free, dezincification-resistant brass construction — compliant with potable water material standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExpansion-style connection method for use with PEX-A pipe only\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch PEX-A inlet x 3\/4-inch female NPT outlet transition\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned for potable water distribution systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as a package of 12 fittings for multi-connection jobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with PEX-A pipe only.
