1 inch Sharkbite Push Fitting Adapter Push x Male

1" MPT x Push-Fit Adapter – Lead-Free Brass, CTS Pipe Transition Fitting

This 1" MPT x push-fit adapter provides a fast and code-compliant transition between copper, CPVC, or PEX tubing and 1" NPT threaded fittings. Manufactured from lead-free dezincification-resistant brass, it is suitable for use in potable water distribution and closed-loop hydronic systems.

The push-fit end accepts nominal 1" copper tube size (CTS) pipe and is designed for tool-free installation. The male threaded end conforms to ANSI B1.20.1 standards and connects directly to compatible FIP components including valves, manifolds, and fittings. The internal gripping mechanism consists of stainless steel teeth and an O-ring seal, allowing for immediate pressurization upon installation.

• • Water heater supply assemblies
• • Manifold tie-ins and fixture stub-outs

Installation Notes

Prior to installation, ensure the tubing end is clean, round, and free of surface damage. No solder, glue, or crimping tools are required. Insert pipe fully into the push-fit side until seated at the internal depth stop. Threaded end should be sealed with approved PTFE tape or thread compound. Removal requires the appropriate disconnect clip or tongs.
