SharkBite Max Female Adapter, 1/2 in Push-to-Connect x 1/2 in FNPT, Pack of 12, Brass Plumbing Fitting, UR072

Simplify plumbing and home improvement projects with the SharkBite Max brass push-to-connect female adapter. This fitting features a 1/2 in. push-to-connect end that quickly attaches to CTS pipes, including PEX, copper, CPVC, PE-RT, and SDR-9 HDPE. The opposite 1/2 in. female NPT threaded end connects securely to standard 1/2 in. male NPT fittings, providing a reliable transition between pipe and threaded connections. Made from durable DZR brass and reinforced with a stainless-steel collar, this adapter requires less insertion force than first-generation SharkBite fittings. Installation is tool-free—no solder, clamps, or glue needed—and works even on wet lines. Once installed, the fitting can be rotated for alignment and is certified for underground and behind-the-wall use (wrapping required when buried). Rated to 200 degrees F and 400 PSI, this adapter is manufactured and inspected for functionality in the USA.
