Watts Brass Tubular PL-3000 Quick Connect Union 1/4 in Od

Product Description

The WATTS BRASS TUBULAR PL-3000 is a quick connect union fitting designed to join two lengths of 1/4 inch OD tubing without tools or solvents. The push-to-connect mechanism creates a secure, leak-resistant seal suitable for poly or soft copper tubing in water supply and distribution lines. This fitting is intended for open, accessible installations and is not rated for use with steel tubing or in concealed locations. Plumbers and HVAC technicians working on supply lines, filtration systems, and water treatment applications will encounter this style of fitting regularly. Each package contains 5 units.

The PL-3000 is suited for residential and light commercial applications where quick, repeatable connections are needed on poly or soft copper tubing runs. Common uses include undersink water filtration, ice maker supply lines, RO (reverse osmosis) system plumbing, and similar low-pressure potable water service. Because the fitting is not listed for concealed or in-wall installations, it should be used only in accessible cabinet spaces, mechanical rooms, or other locations where the joint can be inspected and serviced. This fitting is sold in a package of 5.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before making or breaking any connection. Ensure tubing ends are cut square and deburred before inserting into the fitting to achieve a proper seal. Verify that the installation location is accessible for future inspection, as this fitting is not approved for concealed or in-wall use.
