SharkBite U120LF Push-Fit MNPT Connector, Lead-Free

The SharkBite U120LF is a lead-free push-fit MNPT connector built for plumbers and contractors who need a fast, reliable transition without soldering, clamps, unions, or glue. Available in 1/2 In and 1 In trade sizes, this fitting uses SharkBite's push-fit connection system to join copper tubing, CTS CPVC, and PEX pipe in any combination, and it is certified to 200 PSI and 200 degrees F (93 degrees C) for demanding rough-in and repair work. Simply insert the pipe and the internal stainless steel teeth bite down and grip tight while a specially formulated O-ring compresses to form a watertight seal - no torch, no primer, no crimp tool required. Whether you're transitioning a 1/2 In branch line or a 1 In main run to threaded valves and fixtures, the U120LF delivers the same dependable, code-compliant connection across the size range.

Key Features

  • Trade Size Range: Offered in 1/2 In and 1 In sizes to cover a wide range of rough-in and repair applications.
  • Universal Pipe Compatibility: Fits copper tubing, CTS CPVC, and PEX, and connects all three pipe types together in any combination on a single job.
  • Instant Push-Fit Connection: Insert the pipe and the stainless steel teeth grip while the O-ring seals - no soldering, clamps, unions, or glue required, which speeds up rough-in and repair time.
  • Pressure and Temperature Rating: Certified to 200 PSI and 200 degrees F (93 degrees C), suitable for hot and cold potable water lines.
  • MNPT Threaded End: Male NPT threaded connection allows a direct transition from push-fit tubing to standard threaded fittings, valves, or fixtures.
  • Reusable and Rotatable: Disassembles quickly with the SharkBite disconnect tool, so fittings and valves can be removed, repositioned, or reused. The fitting can also be rotated after assembly for easier alignment in tight spaces.
  • Lead-Free Construction: Manufactured to lead-free specifications for potable water applications.

SharkBite U120LF – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the SharkBite U120LF push-fit connector join copper, CPVC and PEX, or do I need a different fitting for each pipe type?
One fitting covers all three. The U120LF accepts copper tubing, CTS CPVC, and PEX, and it will connect any combination of those on the same job, so a copper stub out to a PEX branch runs through the same connector. No solder, primer, glue, or crimp tool is involved: push the pipe in and the stainless steel teeth grip while the O-ring seals.
2) Is the U120LF rated for hot water lines?
Yes. The connector is certified to 200 PSI and 200 degrees F (93 degrees C), which covers both hot and cold potable water. It is lead-free brass, so it is appropriate for potable service.
3) Which end threads into a valve, the push-fit side or the other side?
The U120LF is push-fit on one end and male NPT on the other, so the threaded end screws into a female threaded valve, fixture, or adapter and the push-fit end takes copper, CPVC, or PEX tubing. If the valve you are tying into has male threads, you need a female-thread push-fit adapter instead.
4) What sizes does the SharkBite U120LF MNPT connector come in, and what is the part number for the 1 inch?
Two trade sizes: 1/2 inch, which is the U120LF, and 1 inch, which is ordered as U140LF. Both are the same push-fit by male NPT configuration.
5) Can a SharkBite U120LF be taken apart and reused if I get the alignment wrong?
It can. The fitting releases with the SharkBite disconnect tool, so it can be removed, repositioned, or reused, and it also rotates after assembly, which helps when you are lining up a threaded valve in a tight joist bay or wall cavity.
6) For a repair in a finished wall where I cannot use a torch, is a push-fit connector like this the right call?
That is exactly the case it is built for. Because the connection is made by inserting the pipe, there is no flame, no primer or cement cure time, and no crimp tool to fit into the cavity, which is why push-fit gets used on repair and retrofit work where soldering is impractical. The trade-off versus soldered or crimped joints is cost per fitting, so most contractors use it for repairs, tie-ins, and tight spots rather than a full rough-in of long runs.
7) Is this push-fit MNPT connector sold individually or in a box?
The U120LF is packaged 12 each, so it comes as a box quantity rather than a single fitting. That suits truck stock and multi-unit repair work where you are setting several threaded transitions at once.
