Sharkbite UP256A5 Poly Pex 90 Degree Elbow 3/4 in 5 Pack

Product Description

The SHARKBITE UP256A5 is a 3/4-inch poly PEX 90-degree elbow fitting sold in a 5-pack. The alloy barb construction allows for straightforward connection of PEX tubing at a right angle without specialized tooling beyond a clamp or crimp tool. This fitting is designed for use in potable water distribution systems and hydronic heating applications. It is a barb-style fitting, meaning it relies on either a stainless steel clamp system or a copper crimp ring system to secure the joint. Plumbers and PEX installers use this elbow when routing tubing around corners in residential or light commercial piping runs.

This fitting is suited for both potable water distribution and hydronic heating system installations. The 90-degree angle makes it a practical choice for directional changes in PEX tubing runs inside walls, floors, or mechanical chases. The barb connection style is compatible with either a stainless steel clamp system or a copper crimp ring system. Clamps and crimp rings are not included with this pack. The 5-pack quantity is practical for jobs requiring multiple elbows in a single installation.
