It features a ProPEX inlet on one end and a female NPT (FNPT) threaded outlet on the other, allowing a direct transition from PEX tubing to a threaded fixture connection. Constructed from lead-free brass, this fitting meets modern potable water requirements. It is primarily installed by licensed plumbers working on residential and light commercial water distribution systems where a wall-mounted fixture connection is required, such as shower arms or wall-outlet supply points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drop-ear elbow is suited for in-wall rough-in applications where the fitting must be secured to framing before drywall installation. The ear flanges allow the fitting to be fastened to a backing plate or stud, keeping the threaded outlet stationary and preventing pipe movement at the fixture connection point. It is used with 1\/2 inch nominal ProPEX PEX tubing and pairs with standard 1\/2 inch FNPT threaded fixtures and adapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e90-degree elbow with integrated mounting ears for solid attachment to wall framing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProPEX inlet compatible with Uponor ProPEX expansion tooling and rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch FNPT threaded outlet for direct connection to wall-mount fixtures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction suitable for potable water applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDomestic product designation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1\/2 inch nominal ProPEX PEX tubing systems using Uponor ProPEX expansion-style connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires Uponor ProPEX expansion tooling and the appropriate PEX expansion rings — standard crimp or clamp tools are not compatible with ProPEX fittings. Fasten the ear flanges securely to wall framing or a backing plate before closing the wall cavity. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the system before making any connections.
