Videos
The SharkBite U416LFA is a push-fit reducing tee designed for plumbing applications where you need to reduce pipe size during installation. This fitting connects one 1-inch line to a 1-inch line and a 3/4-inch line, making it ideal for water distribution systems in both residential and commercial settings. Whether you're upgrading potable water lines, repairing hydronic heating systems, or working on underground piping, this reducing tee provides a straightforward solution without the complexity of soldering or adhesives.
The push-fit design allows for emergency repairs even when the water line cannot be turned off, and the fitting can be rotated after installation to accommodate tight spaces and improve connection access. Removable with disconnect tongs or a disconnect clip (sold separately), the SharkBite simplifies both installation and future maintenance.
