Constructed from lead-free DZR brass, this fitting offers reliable corrosion resistance in both hot and cold water applications. The barbed design creates a secure mechanical connection when used with either a stainless steel clamp system or a copper crimp ring system. Clamps and crimp rings are sold separately. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting during new construction, remodels, and system repairs where PEX tubing is the distribution pipe of choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis elbow fitting is suited for residential and light commercial potable water distribution lines as well as hydronic radiant heating systems. It performs in applications where a directional change is needed at a branch point or along a run of PEX tubing. The fitting meets ASTM F1807 dimensional standards and carries NSF\/ANSI 61 certification for drinking water system components, along with NSF 372 compliance for lead-free content. Its compact size and straightforward barb-and-clamp or barb-and-crimp installation method make it a practical choice for tight spaces and high-volume residential rough-in work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free DZR brass construction meets NSF 372 low-lead requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e90-degree barb configuration for directional PEX tubing transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with both stainless steel clamp and copper crimp ring installation systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCertified to NSF\/ANSI 61 for potable water safety\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASTM F1807 dimensional standards for PEX barb fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for potable water distribution and hydronic heating applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1\/2-inch PEX tubing in stainless steel clamp systems or copper crimp ring systems in potable water distribution and hydronic heating installations.

Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting into any existing system. Use the appropriate PEX clamp tool or copper crimp tool sized for 1\/2-inch fittings to achieve a proper seal. Do not overtighten or attempt to install without the correct tool, as improper crimping or clamping can result in joint failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead-free DZR brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: PEX barb elbow, 90 degree\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection System\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless steel clamp or copper crimp ring (sold separately)\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: 0.04 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: UC248LFA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RWC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51710879170866,"sku":"UC248LFA","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5ac88656c8953d08a3d83489774dcc14.jpg?v=1788471776","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sharkbite-uc248lfa-1-2-inch-pex-barb-brass-90-degree-elbow","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
