3/4 x 1 Inch MNPT Adapter, Push to Connect Brass Plumbing Fitting, PEX Pipe, Copper, CPVC, PE-RT, HDPE, U139LFA

I really liked how easily this snapped onto my 1/2" PEX pipe. We installed this in our RV and once installed and hose connected, we tested the line/connections using water at 60psi and observed for several minutes. No leaks! This does exactly what it is supposed to do, make it simple for DIY people to work on plumbing. In the RV world, this is a blessing since most of the plumbing is pretty simple, yet crammed into tiny spaces making it extremely frustrating to get to. Most plumbers and RV specialists will charge astronomical prices to fix plumbing issues in an RV. But Sharkbite products is a real game charger for people that have plumbing skills and even those that do not! Haven't had a Sharkbite product fail in over 5 years of RVing!

Worked perfect!

This is exactly what I needed to connect a spigot to cooper tube.

I bought this to fix a leak temporarily. The pipe in my tub spout was leaking from the soldered male threaded fitting. I needed something to hold me over until I was able to get someone over to remodel and repair my bathroom. This was easy to install and kept me with a working tub.

It was the right fitting but the picture was not accurate. I ordered this because it shows the pex stiffener (white insert) as a part of this but it does not come with this fitting. Sharkbite are great for their intended purpose but for pex you really need the stiffener. Shows it comes with one but it doesn’t.

Not gonna lie. When I first got these I was concerned about leaks and waking up to my basement flooding as I had never used them. I'm used to either brazing copper pipes or priming and gluing pvc tubing. I'm a bit of a control guy and when I moved into my house years ago had ripped out the horror that was the tubing entering my basement from the well pump.. put in a whole house filter, pressure tank, other, removable filters and carbon filters, water softener etc. After years of use the softener had given up and the mechanisms sprung leaks all over. I wanted to take that out and instead put in an iron removing filter as our sinks and toilets need constant scrubbing with some of our lighter clothes becoming "work on the car" items due to staining. I read a lot of reviews here and elsewhere about the sharkbite connectors and wound up ordering them.. heck, they were returning so why not? I cut cpvc to length and put connected everything with sharkbite elbows, reducers, and a valves. Once I slipped everything together, crossed my fingers and opened up the water. Hmm,.. so far so good but lets wait and see.. turned on the water throughout the house and watched everything pop and shake as air bled out of the system and pressurized to 70psi. Okay.. so far so good. Cleaned up and went upstairs to eat.. came back down checking for leaks... went to watch tv (The Boys-started slow but ROCKS)... wife and I took turns checking for leaks. Went to bed... got up a few times... and now it's been a few weeks. Not a drop of water and none of the pipes has tried to slip out as we have them all marked for this purpose. These things rock! One of the things I like best is that you can rotate the fittings (ie; the pipes can still move, rotate etc) without leaks which means it's all super forgiving if you get your lengths slightly off and stuff is not 100% straight and true.. it adjusts.. something PVC and Copper do NOT do... and I can also move stuff around a few inches if needed without cutting/de-brazing pipes etc. I'm a convert!

It's what I needed and didn't leak

The right fitting to adapt from 1/4” OD tubing to receive 1/2” male fitting.

I used this to connect CPVC 1/2 inch pipe to a washing machine. The Sharkbite is easy to snap onto the pipe. The threads fit the washing machine hose. Quick and easy. No leaks.

Sharkbite fittings are the new thing where you dont need to make thread and use wrenches. Simply cut and push cpvc pipes and you are done in no time.

Easy to install and did not/do not leak. Make sure you have a clean cut pipe with no burs, don't use sand paper, press on, good to go. I love it because I could not solder where I needed to place them due to fire hazard, so it made the project easier.

I liked the the fitting could spin and maintain the seal.

Love it, works first time every time. Makes plumbing easy.
