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.
