The FOFI ANGULAR PEX DE COBRE 1/2" with 3/8" Shut‑Off Valve is engineered to bring speed, reliability, and certified safety into your plumbing installations. Designed for professionals and skilled DIYers working on residential and commercial water systems, this fitting merges the durability of copper pipe with the practicality of PEX systems in a single solution. Materials & Construction Crafted from high-purity copper and lead‑free internal components, this connector is safe for potable water use. The valve body features chromed brass for corrosion resistance and long service life. Certified under NSF61, NSF372, NSF14, and ASSE 1061, this component meets rigorous safety and performance standards. Unique Valve Design Unlike standard PEX stub out parts, this model includes a 1/2 pex elbow style 360° shut-off valve that provides ultimate flexibility in orientation. You can position the valve in any direction without stressing connections, even in tight spaces. Leak‑Resistant and Versatile The sealing geometry and reliable internal seats help prevent leaks. Compatible with copper crimp and PEX clamp systems, this connector accepts 1/2 pex clamps and crimp rings, making it suitable for both repair and new installation scenarios. Ease of Installation Match your 1/2 copper pipe or 1/2 pex line to the fitting's PEX port and align properly. Trim piping flush and mark insertion depth. Place a 1/2 pex clamp or copper crimp ring, insert the pipe fully until it seats. Secure the connection with the clamp/crimp tool. Keep the outlet valve closed. Turn on the main water supply and observe for leaks. Cover the chrome outlet during construction to protect the finish; remove later and install decorative escutcheon if desired. Ideal Applications This product is perfect when you require a PEX stub out with integrated control — e.g. for sinks, lavatories, dishwashers, ice makers, or any appliance requiring a 1/2 pex feed with a 3/8" valve. As a copper fit elbow, it reduces transitions and saved labor hours. What makes this stand apart is the combination of industrial brass/copper durability, full certifications, and a built-in 1/2 inch pex fittings valve — eliminating the need to source separate shut-off valves. The compact, angular form allows installs in confined wall cavities while maintaining full access to control the flow. Whether in rough‑in or retrofit, the FOFI ANGULAR PEX DE COBRE delivers dependable performance and flexibility where standard pex 90 degree elbow 1/2 parts may fall short.
