SharkBite UXL8 Push-to-Connect 90-Degree Elbow, DZR Brass

The SharkBite UXL8 large-diameter push-to-connect 90-degree elbow is built for fast, no-solder transitions between PEX, copper, CPVC, PE-RT, or HDPE pipe in any combination. Available in 1-1/4-In, 1-1/2-In, and 2-In CTS sizes, this family of fittings uses a low-lead DZR corrosion-resistant brass body with stainless steel gripping teeth and a chlorine-resistant O-ring to form a secure, watertight joint without soldering, clamps, unions, glue, or special tools. Every size in the family is rated to 200 degrees F and 200 PSI, approved for underground and behind-the-wall applications with no access panel required, and can be pressure tested immediately after installation.

Key Features

  • Trade Size Range: 1-1/4-In, 1-1/2-In, and 2-In CTS for large-diameter rough-in plumbing runs.
  • Durable Construction: Low-lead DZR corrosion-resistant brass body for long-term reliability across the entire size range.
  • Push-to-Connect Design: Stainless steel gripping teeth bite down on the pipe while a chlorine-resistant O-ring compresses for a watertight seal - no soldering, clamps, unions, glue, or special tools needed.
  • Rotatable & Removable: Fitting can be rotated after installation for easy alignment changes, and removed with a large-diameter disconnect tool (UXLDC35, UXLDC41, UXLDC54) for reuse, matched to the size installed.
  • Wet or Dry Line Installation: Installs on wet or dry lines and can be pressure tested immediately, with no waiting on soldered joints to cool or solvents to dry.
  • Pressure & Temperature Rating: Rated to 200 degrees F and 200 PSI across all sizes in the family.
  • PEX Compatibility: When connecting to PEX pipe, a stiffener (SBTL35, SBTL41, SBTL54) sized to match the fitting is required.
  • Underground & Behind-the-Wall Use: Approved for underground and behind-the-wall applications with no access panel required (wrapping required when burying underground).

Certifications & Compliance

  • IAPMO Listed
  • 25-Year Warranty when used with PEX, copper, CPVC & PE-RT pipe

SharkBite UXL0235 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the SharkBite UXL8 elbow connect PEX to copper, or does it need the same pipe on both ends?
The UXL8 large-diameter 90-degree elbow joins PEX, copper, CPVC, PE-RT, or HDPE in any combination, so you can run copper into one end and PEX out the other with no adapter. It's a push-to-connect joint, no solder, glue, clamps or unions.
2) Do I need a stiffener when pushing a SharkBite UXL8 elbow onto PEX?
Yes. Connecting to PEX requires a stiffener matched to the fitting size: SBTL35 for 1-1/4 inch, SBTL41 for 1-1/2 inch, SBTL54 for 2 inch. Copper, CPVC, and PE-RT connections do not take a stiffener. The stiffener is a separate item, so order it with the elbow.
3) Can a SharkBite UXL8 push-fit elbow be buried underground or closed up behind drywall?
Both are approved uses. The UXL8 elbow is rated for underground and behind-the-wall installation with no access panel required. If you bury it, the fitting has to be wrapped. The low-lead DZR brass body is corrosion resistant, which is why it holds up in those concealed locations.
4) How do you remove a SharkBite UXL8 elbow if the alignment is wrong?
The fitting rotates after it's pushed on, so minor alignment changes don't require pulling it off. For full removal you need a large-diameter disconnect tool matched to the size: UXLDC35, UXLDC41, or UXLDC54. The elbow can be reused after removal. The small orange tongue-style clips used on standard SharkBite fittings will not work on these large-diameter bodies.
5) Is the SharkBite UXL8 elbow code approved for potable water?
The UXL8 90-degree elbow is IAPMO Listed, and the body is low-lead DZR brass. Inspectors in jurisdictions on the Uniform Plumbing Code generally accept IAPMO listed push-fit fittings for concealed potable water work, including behind the wall without an access panel.
6) What sizes does the SharkBite UXL8 90-degree elbow come in?
Three CTS trade sizes cover the large-diameter range: 1-1/4 inch (UXL0235), 1-1/2 inch (UXL0241), and 2 inch (UXL0254). All three share the same DZR brass body and the same 200 PSI / 200 degree F rating, so the choice is purely pipe size.
7) Will a 2-inch push-to-connect elbow hold on a hot water line?
The 2 inch UXL8 elbow (UXL0254) is rated to 200 degrees F and 200 PSI, same as the 1-1/4 and 1-1/2 inch sizes, so domestic hot water is within range. The seal is a chlorine-resistant O-ring, which matters on municipal water with high chlorine or chloramine levels.
8) Can I pressure test right after installing SharkBite UXL8 elbows, or do I have to wait?
No wait. These elbows install on wet or dry lines and can be pressure tested immediately, with nothing to cool down or cure. That's the main scheduling advantage over sweating copper or solvent-welding CPVC on a large-diameter rough-in.
9) Why use DZR brass instead of standard brass on a buried water fitting?
DZR (dezincification-resistant) brass resists the leaching of zinc that attacks ordinary brass in aggressive or soft water, which is the common failure mode for buried and concealed fittings. The UXL8 elbow uses a low-lead DZR body with stainless steel gripping teeth, so the structural parts of the joint are the corrosion-resistant ones.
