SHARKBITE UC016LFA — 3/4 IN × 3/4 IN LEAD‑FREE PEX COUPLING
The SharkBite UC016LFA is a 3/4-inch PEX barb × PEX barb coupling engineered for joining two equal‑sized PEX lines in potable‑water and hydronic‑heating applications. Made from lead‑free DZR brass, this coupling provides excellent corrosion resistance, long‑term durability, and compliance with modern plumbing safety standards.
This coupling is installed using either copper crimp rings or stainless‑steel PEX clamps, delivering a secure mechanical seal without solder, glue, or heat. Its full‑flow internal design minimizes pressure loss, while its compact body makes it ideal for repipes, new construction, or tight‑space repairs.
Rated for 200°F and 160 PSI, the UC016LFA is suitable for high‑demand residential and light commercial systems. It is compatible with PEX‑A, PEX‑B, and PEX‑C tubing, ensuring cross‑system versatility and dependable performance.
