Simplify your plumbing and home improvement projects with SharkBite Max brass push-to-connect male adapters. Made from strong and reliable DZR brass and reinforced with a stainless-steel collar, this fitting transitions easily from CTS pipe to a female NPT threaded connection. It connects to PEX, copper, CPVC, PE-RT, and SDR-9 HDPE pipes with less insertion force than SharkBite's first-generation fittings. Installation is tool-free, requires no glue or solder, and works even in wet lines. The adapter can be rotated after installation and is certified for underground and behind-the-wall use without access panels (wrapping required when buried). Built for lasting durability and rated to 200 degrees F and 400 PSI. Manufactured and inspected for functionality in the USA.
