Sharkbite UAB362LFA Pex-a Brass Tee Fitting

Product Description

The SHARKBITE UAB362LFA is a PEX-A brass tee fitting designed for push-to-connect installation in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. This tee allows a single supply line to branch into two directions without soldering, crimping, or special tools. The brass construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in wet environments. Licensed plumbers and experienced DIYers install this fitting when splitting a water supply run, adding a branch to an existing line, or making repairs where access is limited. Its push-to-connect mechanism seats the pipe securely with an internal collet and O-ring, creating a leak-tight joint under normal service pressure.

This fitting is suited for PEX-A tubing applications in potable water distribution systems. It is typically installed in residential new construction, remodel work, and repair scenarios where fast, reliable connections are needed. The tee configuration makes it useful at manifold branches, fixture supply splits, and in-wall or under-slab repairs where torch work is not practical or permitted.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified tradesperson. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before cutting into any existing line. Ensure pipe ends are cut square and deburred before inserting into the fitting. Follow all applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines for push-to-connect fittings in potable water systems.
