3/8 in to 1/2 in Push-Fit Coupling
This brass push-fit coupling joins 3/8 in and 1/2 in tubing without solder or tools. It is intended for potable water systems in residential and light commercial plumbing. The fitting installs by pushing each tube end into the respective port until seated.
200 psi and 200 °F operating limits
Rated for 200 psi maximum operating pressure and 200 °F maximum temperature, the coupling handles typical hot and cold water distribution. It is not suited for steam lines, high-pressure hydronics or applications exceeding either limit.
Brass body with no pre-applied sealant
The solid brass construction resists corrosion in normal water chemistry and runs silently under flow. No thread sealant is included or required for the push-to-connect ports, so joints remain clean and serviceable.

Questions about this item
Will the 3/8 in push-fit end connect to my existing copper pipe without soldering?
Yes, the push-to-connect design joins 3/8 in tube directly without solder, flux or special tools.
How do I confirm the coupling is sealed once installed?
Press each tube fully into the fitting until it stops; the internal grab ring and O-ring create a watertight seal you can pressure-test to 200 psi.
Does the brass coupling come with thread sealant or must I buy it separately?
Pre-applied thread sealant is not included, so no extra sealant is required for the push-fit connections.
