Product Description
The SHARKBITE ur120 is a push-to-connect male NPT adapter designed for fast, tool-free connections in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. This straight adapter transitions a 1/2-inch push-to-connect fitting end to a 1/2-inch male NPT threaded connection, eliminating the need for soldering, clamps, or crimping tools. Constructed as a lead-free fitting, it meets potable water safety requirements. Licensed plumbers and experienced trade installers use this fitting to simplify transitions between push-fit supply lines and threaded pipe or valve inlets in tight spaces and rough-in applications.
This adapter is suited for residential water supply lines, including connections to angle stops, shutoff valves, and threaded fixture inlets. It works with copper, CPVC, and PEX tubing of the matching size. The push-to-connect end allows rapid field assembly, making it a common choice for service calls, repairs, and new installations where minimizing torch work is a priority. Compact dimensions allow use inside wall cavities and under-sink enclosures.

Installation Notes
Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified tradespeople in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and fully depressurize the line before installing or removing push-to-connect fittings. Ensure the pipe end is cut cleanly and squarely and is fully deburred and clean before inserting into the push-to-connect end.
