Sharkbite UR4256A Push-to-connect 90 Degree Brass Elbow

Product Description

The SHARKBITE UR4256A is a push-to-connect 90-degree brass elbow fitting designed for copper tube size (CTS) pipe connections. It uses the SharkBite push-fit mechanism, allowing plumbers to make secure, tool-free connections without soldering, crimping, or gluing. The brass body provides corrosion resistance and durability in both hot and cold water applications. This fitting is sold individually and weighs 0.312 pounds, making it a compact, lightweight component suited for tight spaces and quick-turn installations. Licensed plumbers and skilled trades professionals use this fitting in residential and light commercial plumbing systems.

The UR4256A is intended for use in potable water supply lines, hydronic heating systems, and general plumbing distribution applications where a 90-degree directional change is required. The push-to-connect design significantly reduces labor time compared to traditional solder fittings, making it a practical choice for repair work, retrofits, and new construction installations involving CTS pipe.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the IPC. Always shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before making or breaking any connections. Ensure pipe ends are cut cleanly and deburred before inserting into the fitting to achieve a proper seal. Do not exceed the fitting's rated pressure and temperature limits for the intended application.
