It transitions from a 1\/2 inch Male Iron Pipe (MIP) thread on one end to a 3\/4 inch Male Garden Hose (MGH) thread on the other, with a push-connect inlet rated to hold up to 250 psi. The fitting ships as a single pre-assembled piece with no loose parts to manage on the job. It suits licensed plumbers and experienced tradespeople working on new construction or repair projects involving PEX, copper, or CPVC pipe. NSF-14 and NSF-61 certifications confirm it meets potable water contact standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis connector is well-suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations where a hose bib, washing machine, or outdoor water connection is being tied into an existing supply line. The push-connect end accepts PEX, copper, or CPVC tubing — simply cut the pipe clean, push it into the fitting until the tubing seats at the internal stop, and the connection is made. The valve is code approved for behind-wall installations without access panels and for direct in-ground burial. It serves as a direct replacement for Qest and Flare-It type fittings in retrofit and repair scenarios.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePush-connect design requires no installation tools — push tubing in until seated at the internal stop\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDisconnect by pulling back on the release ring to free the pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 250 psi working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-piece construction — no separate parts to assemble or lose on the job\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCode approved for behind-wall without access and direct in-ground burial installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNSF-14 and NSF-61 listed; CSA\/ASTM and UPC code approved for potable water use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible replacement for Qest and Flare-It type fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with PEX, copper, and CPVC tubing on the push-connect inlet end.

Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before cutting into any existing supply pipe. Ensure the pipe end is cut square and deburred before inserting into the push-connect end to guarantee a proper seat and leak-free connection. Do not exceed the rated working pressure of 250 psi.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch Male Iron Pipe (MIP)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch Male Garden Hose Thread (MGH)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 250 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Pipe Types\u003c\/strong\u003e: PEX, Copper, CPVC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 pounds (package)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications\u003c\/strong\u003e: NSF-14, NSF-61, CSA\/ASTM, UPC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Push-connect, tool-free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: WATTS BRASS TUBULAR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3557-1408\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WATTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51558315295026,"sku":"3557-1408","price":75.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/076a23e8b1351c57b810141d1d39f786.jpg?v=1786409255","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/watts-brass-tubular-3557-1408-angle-valve-quick-connector","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
