The SharkBite UP412A5 PEX barb tee is a poly alloy fitting designed to connect cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) tubing in hot and cold water distribution systems. This five-pack provides a poly alloy alternative to brass insert fittings, suitable for both hot-water heating and cold-water distribution applications.
The barb insert design works with copper crimp rings or stainless steel clamps for a solderless installation. The poly alloy material is formulated to reduce lead exposure compared to brass alternatives, helping meet California AB1953 and Vermont S152 low-lead water quality standards.
