The swivel design allows the threaded end to rotate during installation, reducing torque stress on the connection and making it easier to thread into fixed fittings without twisting the PEX line. This type of adapter is a standard component in potable water distribution, hydronic heating, and radiant floor systems. Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or experienced plumbing contractors working with PEX-A piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis swivel adapter is suited for applications where PEX-A tubing transitions to NPT-threaded valves, manifolds, shut-off valves, or fixture supply connections. It is commonly used in new construction plumbing rough-ins and in remodel work where existing NPT-threaded components are being integrated into a PEX-A distribution system. The FNPT end accommodates standard tapered pipe thread fittings found throughout residential and light commercial plumbing installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePEX-A compatible construction supports expanded PEX connection method for reliable, long-term performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSwivel FNPT end reduces installation torque stress and simplifies threading into fixed fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFemale NPT thread accepts standard tapered pipe thread connections at valves, manifolds, and fixtures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.125 pounds, suitable for tight installation spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually, allowing precise quantity purchasing for each connection point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style transition fitting for PEX-A plumbing systems connecting to standard female NPT-threaded components in residential and light commercial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before making any connections. PEX-A expansion fittings require the proper expander tool sized to the tubing diameter before inserting the fitting. Do not overtighten the FNPT swivel connection; hand-tight plus the appropriate number of turns per code and fitting manufacturer guidance is sufficient to achieve a leak-free seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.125 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: PEX-A x Female NPT Swivel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Category\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plumbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SHARKBITE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: UAB526LFA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RWC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68055461265714,"sku":"UAB526LFA","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cd426905c81c568c99299054c16c9427.jpg?v=1793004871","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sharkbite-uab526lfa-pex-a-fnpt-swivel-adapter","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
