Constructed from lead-free DZR (dezincification-resistant) brass, this adapter offers a reliable, code-compliant connection in both potable water and hydronic heating systems. One end features a barbed fitting that accepts a stainless steel clamp system or a copper crimp ring system (each sold separately), while the other end is threaded MNPT for a secure mechanical connection. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as a low-cost, straightforward transition point between PEX tubing runs and threaded components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is suited for residential and light commercial potable water distribution and hydronic heating applications. It is intended for use where PEX tubing must transition to a male NPT threaded connection, such as at valves, manifolds, boiler ports, or fixture supply stubs. The barb end is sized at 1\/2 inch CF and the threaded end is 1\/2 inch MPT, making it a direct-fit solution for standard half-inch PEX installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free DZR brass construction meets NSF 372 lead-free requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBarb end compatible with stainless steel clamp systems and copper crimp ring systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMNPT threaded end for connection to standard NPT-threaded fittings, valves, and ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApproved for potable water distribution and hydronic heating applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCertified to ASTM F1807 and NSF\/ANSI 61\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually — clamp or crimp tools and rings sold separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with PEX tubing systems using either a stainless steel clamp system or a copper crimp ring system.

Shut off water supply and relieve system pressure before installing or removing any fitting. The barb end requires a properly sized clamp or crimp ring and the appropriate installation tool — do not install without the correct ring and tool for the chosen connection method. Inspect the PEX tubing end for squareness and cleanliness before seating it onto the barb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead-Free DZR Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBarb Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch CF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch MPT (MNPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: PEX Barb x Male NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Crimp Systems\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel Clamp or Copper Crimp Ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM F1807, NSF\/ANSI 61, NSF 372\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\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: UC120LFA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RWC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51715217424690,"sku":"UC120LFA","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4d0ec3856d093a4a13d8747a8049bdaa.jpg?v=1788510727","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sharkbite-uc120lfa-pex-barb-male-adapter-1-2-in-cf-x-mpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
