SharkBite fittings connect to PEX, copper, and CPVC tubing. They do not require any tools for installation, making them perfect for small, DIY projects. SharkBite fittings lock directly onto tubing for a secure and leak-free link. The connections are so strong that simply pulling the fittings off is impossible.
Disconnecting Shark-Bite fittings requires a small, inexpensive tool. A properly sized clip or set of tongs must be used to remove SharkBite fittings from any kind of piping. The process is as easy as the installation. Just push the tool against the fitting’s release collar and twist the tube out of the fitting. Full instructions and a helpful diagram can be found on Page 4 of the SharkBite Installation Guide.
