SharkBite PEX Adapter, 1/2 in Barb x 1/2 in FIP, Brass, Lead-Free, Potable Water, Hydronic Heating

Connect PEX tubing with a brass adapter that keeps the job straightforward.

A tidy fit for potable water and hydronic lines.

Product Overview:

When a fitting has to do its job without fuss, this SharkBite PEX adapter makes a lot of sense. It gives you a 1/2 inch barb on one side and a 1/2 inch female threaded connection on the other, so you can move from PEX tubing to threaded pipe with less head scratching. The lead free DZR brass body feels solid in hand, not flimsy or cheap. It works with PEX B, and it also fits PEX A when you need that extra bit of flexibility. Set it in place for potable water or hydronic heating, and you get a clean, practical connection that saves time on the bench and in the field.

Key Features:

• Brass build: Lead free DZR brass gives you a sturdy, dependable fitting that holds up well in day to day use.
• Dual connection style: The 1/2 inch barb and 1/2 inch female thread make the transition smooth and easy to line up.
• PEX flexibility: Use it with PEX B, or lean on it for PEX A when the install calls for a bit more range.
• Clamp or crimp ready: Pair it with a stainless steel clamp system or a copper crimp ring system, both sold separately.
• Built for water work: It suits potable water distribution and hydronic heating, so you can keep the line moving with confidence.
