Review on 🦈 SharkBite UC334LFA PEX Brass 1/2-Inch x 1/2-Inch Drop Ear Elbow, Copper by Harald Patterson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The only problem is that (to my knowledge) there is no such 1/2 inch connector from PEX to a standard hose connector.

to start with I want to give this unit four stars because it does everything it is supposed to do. The only problem is that (as far as I know) there isn't a 1/2" connector like this from PEX to a standard 3/4" hose connector. So you have to buy an adapter for another $5 (maybe less depending on what hardware stores you use and where the stores are located, $5). at amazon, I think too) and possibly a plug from socket to socket. Works perfectly, no leaks when properly connected to other brass fittings or PEX tubing. It saves a lot of money and time with PEX and these types of connectors.

Pros
  • Rough plumbing
Cons
  • not reliable
