Sharkbite UR274A Reducing Push Elbow 3/4 X 1/2 Inch

Product Description

The SHARKBITE UR274A is a reducing push-to-connect elbow fitting designed for fast, tool-free plumbing connections in residential and light commercial water distribution systems. It transitions between a 3/4-inch line and a 1/2-inch branch or supply run using SharkBite push-fit technology, which grips and seals tubing on insertion without soldering, clamps, or unions. Licensed plumbers and experienced plumbing contractors use this fitting for repairs, remodels, and new construction where quick, reliable connections are needed. Manufactured by RWC under the SharkBite brand, the UR274A is sold individually.

This reducing elbow is suited for residential water supply lines, branch connections at fixtures, and repair scenarios where copper, CPVC, or PEX tubing meets a direction change with a size reduction. The 3/4 x 1/2-inch configuration is a common transition point between main supply runs and fixture drops in residential systems. It is appropriate for use in accessible locations per local plumbing code, and verifying compatibility with local jurisdiction requirements before installation is standard practice.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect fitting requires no soldering, crimping, or special tools for installation
• Reducing elbow configuration transitions 3/4-inch to 1/2-inch in a single fitting
• 90-degree elbow geometry allows directional changes in tight spaces
• Sold as a single unit for targeted repair or installation use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-fit replacement fitting for residential and light commercial potable water plumbing systems. Verify tubing type and local code acceptance prior to installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified tradesperson in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the water supply and ensure tubing is cut cleanly and squarely before insertion. Tube must be fully inserted to the marked depth line to achieve a proper seal. Do not exceed the pressure and temperature ratings for the fitting or the connected tubing system.
