SharkBite U412LF 3/4" x 3/4" x 1/2" Push-Fit Reducing Tee

SharkBite U412LF 3/4" x 3/4" x 1/2" Push-Fit Reducing Tee

The SharkBite U412LF is a 3/4" x 3/4" x 1/2" push-fit reducing tee built for rough-in plumbers who need a fast, code-friendly branch connection without a torch, glue, or clamps. This fitting joins copper tubing, CTS CPVC, and PEX in any combination on its three ports, so a tech can transition between pipe materials mid-run without swapping tools or carrying extra couplings. Each SharkBite fitting is certified to 200 PSI and 200 degrees F (93 degrees C), making it suitable for hot and cold potable water branch lines behind the wall or under the floor. Simply cut the pipe square, deburr it, mark the insertion depth, and push straight in — the internal stainless steel teeth grip the pipe while a formulated O-ring compresses to form the seal, no soldering, unions, or mechanical clamps required.

Key Features

• Trade Size: 3/4" x 3/4" x 1/2" reducing tee configuration for branching down to a smaller outlet on a rough-in run.
• Multi-Material Compatibility: Fits copper tubing, CTS CPVC, and PEX, and connects all three types in any combination on the same fitting.
• Push-Fit Connection: Instant push-fit assembly speeds installation with no soldering, clamps, unions, or glue required.
• Pressure & Temperature Rating: Certified to 200 PSI and 200 degrees F (93 degrees C) for demanding rough-in water line applications.
• Reusable Design: Disassembles quickly with the SharkBite disconnect tool, so fittings and valves can be removed, reused, and even rotated after assembly for tight-space installs.
• No-Lead Construction: Model designation (LF) reflects the low-lead brass body used across the SharkBite push-fit line.

Why SharkBite?

SharkBite pioneered the push-fit connection system, and the U412LF reducing tee carries the same stainless steel tooth grip and formulated O-ring seal used across the line, backed by a 200 PSI and 200 degrees F (93 degrees C) certification. Plumbers rely on SharkBite when a job calls for a fast, reliable branch connection across multiple pipe materials without waiting on adhesive cure time or firing up a torch in a tight, wall-cavity space. The ability to disconnect and reuse fittings also means less waste and more flexibility when a rough-in plan changes mid-job.
