COMPATIBILITY

System Requirements

This SharkBite PEX Barb Threaded Female Adapter is compatible with all standard PEX tubing types (PEX-A, PEX-B, and PEX-C) and works with both stainless steel clamp systems and copper crimp ring systems. The female NPT threads connect to any male threaded fitting, valve, or fixture. Approved for use in potable water systems and hydronic heating applications. Clamps and crimp rings are sold separately and must match your tubing size.

🔧 Pro tip: Always verify the barb is fully inserted by checking that the tubing reaches the shoulder of the fitting before securing your clamp or crimp ring. An incomplete insertion is the most common cause of leaks in PEX connections.
