If you need to go from 5/16" PEX tubing to 1/2" PEX tubing, there are several parts needed to make the connection. If you are using compression connections, you will need a QS style 5/16" fitting assembly with R20 thread, a nipple with R20 thread, and another QS style fitting assembly for 1/2". insert the 5/16" assembly into your 5/16" PEX, screw the nipple onto the open end, and screw the other end of the nipple onto the R20 end of your 1/2" PEX fitting assembly.
If you are going from 5/16" PEX tubing to 1/2" copper pipe, you will need the same 5/16" QS style fitting assembly and an R20 thread copper pipe adapter. No nipple is necessary when going to copper.
