Crafted from high-quality DZR forged brass, this fitting offers exceptional resistance to corrosion, ensuring long-lasting performance in both residential and commercial environments. The push-to-connect design simplifies the process of connecting supply lines to fixtures, eliminating the need for stop valves in many applications.

Designed for versatility, this adapter is compatible with a wide range of pipe materials, including PEX, CPVC, PE-RT, SDR-9 HDPE, and copper. The innovative push-to-connect mechanism allows for a secure, watertight union without the use of tools, crimping, glue, or soldering. This feature is particularly beneficial for working in tight spaces or behind walls, as it allows for installation even in wet lines. The fitting is engineered to withstand temperatures up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit and pressures up to 200 PSI, making it suitable for demanding plumbing applications. Additionally, the adapter can be reused up to four times, providing added value and flexibility for professional plumbers and DIY enthusiasts alike. For removal, a disconnect clip or disconnect tongs can be used, ensuring easy maintenance and modification of the system.
