Verified Reply- SupplyHouse StaffHi Nancy, thanks for writing in. No, this fitting cannot be soldered. The threaded end can only be connected to 3/4" female NPT threads.
Q: Is this compataible with female pipe thread?
Asked by Dan 8 years ago

Verified Reply- SupplyHouse StaffYes, the 3/4" Male pipe threaded side would be compatible with any 3/4" female pipe threads.
Q: Can I use this product with Viega pex hose? I want to install this fitting into my shower valves for the hot and cold side. Is this the fitting to use with the Viega pex hose. Thank you.

Verified Reply- SupplyHouse StaffYes, it is compatible with standard Viega pex tubing. It is not compatible with Fostapex, however.
yes
The 1/2" Viega Pex will work fine with the fitting using either stainless or copper crimp rings assuming that your shower valve has a 1/2" female NPT to receive it. Use teflon tape &/or pipe thread compound on the 1/2" NPT junction. Bill Bullivant
Pex is Pex... All 1/2" pipe uses this fitting. One note of caution, Pex is smaller than copper, so I always upsize my main runs. For what I would normally run 3/4" copper, I use 1" pex. But 1/2" should be awesome for a shower. I would use 3/4" for the main trunk going to the bathroom... My 2 cents :) Denton Yoder

Q: Would this be the right size for the where the washer hoses hook to? I'm not sure how to measure the thread size.(inside diameter?)
Asked by Pete 13 years ago

This is what you need. The hose will not fit on the 3/4" thread you need hose thread like comes in the kit below. You might be able to order just the valves Washing Machine Outlet Box, 1/2" PEX Valve SKU:HWB0500 Brand: Watts Never Give up Failure is not an option
I would put the pex tubing to a valve that has an end for the washer to connect to. One for hot and one for cold. They make one and sell here as well look for wall mounted washer housing and valves Sent from my iPhone
No, the threads on the ½ Pex x ¾ NPT Brass Adapter will not accept washing machine hoses. Check out the washing machine outlet boxes here: http://www.pexsupply.com/Washing-Machine-Outlet-Boxes-15331000
If Pete is hooking the washer hoses direct to this fitting then he needs to go from 1/2 pex to hose thread. If he is hooking to a washer box, then he needs to get the washer box he wants and check the fitting size. It will most likely be 1/2 pipe thread.
Pete, You need a hose thread, not pipe thread. Your best solution is to buy the specific washing machine shut off valves that have the whole assembly to shut off the water and will install directly in the wall. They should be available at pex supply. Your other option is to take this part you are looking at and plumb to a hose bib, but this adds a part and is not as clean, but would work. Hope this helps,
No, dude, no. If you're trying to hookup your clothes washer, you can find hose kits made specifically for that purpose at any hardware store. They use female garden hose fittings on both ends of the hose. Now don't ram the back of the washer against the hose; eventually this will make the hose leak. And don't use hoses with exposed stainless steel reinforcing. They're just asking to burst when the stainless fails due to contact with bleach.
Threads not same One can buy 3/4" GHT Garden Hose to 3/4" NPT Brass Coupler/Adapter/Connector GH Numbers "G” designates Ground Thread. “H” means that pitch diameter Thread
No. Washer hoses are a so-called 7/8 hose thread. You could find an adapter to make these work, but it will not by itself.
Q: Would Pex A work with these adapters if I use a Press tool instead of using the expansion tool. Later on I will not have the expansion tool but I will have a Pex Press tool?

Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffPEX-A tubing is compatible with crimp fittings, but please note that this is a crimp-style adapter. These adapters work with PEX crimping or clamping tools/rings, but not PEX press tools. PEX press fittings (see link below) are also compatible with PEX-A. http://www.pexsupply.com/PEX-Press-Fittings-825000
Yes, crimp rings can be used for any type of PEX. Only type A PEX and be expanded.
A crimping tool creates a seal between the Pex hose and the brass Pex fitting. You do not need to expand the hose to do this so all you really need is the crimper and the copper crimping rings Pex sells. I am not sure if this is what you are asking, so I can only hope I have answered your question.
I would think so. I used these fittings with PEX and the crimp rings a plumber friend let me borrow. Worked great. Never used a expansion tool at all. My external hard drive failed. Will yours? Download this FREE Dropbox! No Gimmicks! Just FREE cloud space.
Q: Hi, I've built my own Hot and Cold manifolds which are in the basement directly below the kitchen & bathroom. The room is also located right next to the basement bathroom and washing machine. Due to the close proximity to all the fixtures I do not want to use stop valves under the sinks or toilets. Using the 1/2 Pex from my manifolds (hot and cold) and these 1/2" PEX x 1/2" NPT Brass Male Adapters, do you know how I can hook directly to the 3/8 OD compression fittings on the dishwasher and kitchen and bathroom sinks? I cannot find a nipple or reducer that is of size. The only 3/8" I can find are of I.D. which are, of course too big. What I need is something like this without the valve http://www.pexsupply.com/Brasscraft-OR12-C-1-2-FIP-x-3-8-OD-Compr-Straight-Stop-Valve-Chrome-Plated-4670000-p or any other alternative to connect 3/8" OD compression fitting to 1/2" PEX. I'll even opt not use the Brass Male Adapters if there is a better way Thanks! Greg

Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffWe would recommend part H160500.
You can buy stainless steel flex lines that are sized for that pex mip and your 3/8" dishwasher line or whateve faucet connection you have... the flex line you get will be called something like 1/2" FIP x 3/8 comp or 1/2" FIP x 1/2" comp... youll have to work the rest out yourself. Scott
I’d make the fitting you need by soldering a ½” pex X ½” copper fitting adapter into the following compression fitting: (66-610) <http://www.pexsupply.com/Jones-Stephens-Corp-C74-093-66-610-3-8-Compression -x-5-8-OD-Brass-Sweat-Adapter> 3/8" Compression x 5/8" OD Brass Sweat Adapter * SKU: C74-093 * Brand: Jones Stephens Bigshrub
You may need to make that connection by adapting a standard 3/8” faucet supply line to the end of your 1/2” Pex. One way would be to use a Pex fpt (female) adapter, then a brass reducing bushing, then a brass compression fitting mpt x 3/8 od
I don't know why you would want to use those male adapters. My motto is, the fewer fittings, the better. This is what I used to connect 1/2" pex directly to mine: It is Sioux Chief - 637XB23H - Elbow 1/2 Pex X 3/4 SWVL. For the kitchen faucet I used the Plastic Faucet Swivel Adapter, 1/2" PEX x 1/2" NPSM, SKU H19050, from PexSupply. These connect directly to the faucet, no problem. Jim
1/2 pex to 1/2 fip swivel will connect directly to faucets. For dishwasher you can use 1/2 pex to 3/4 female hose thread or 3/8 mip or fip depending on de connection Connected by DROID on Verizon Wireless
Look under Plumbing | Pipe Fittings & Nipples | Compression Fittings for something like: http://www.pexsupply.com/Jones-Stephens-Corp-C74-066-68-68-3-8-OD-x-1-2-MIP-Brass-Compression-Connector which you can put together with a standard PEX to FIP adapter to get where you're going.
Q: Can I install this to my Main (galvanized pipe)? I would like to run the 3/4 pex into the manifold 'home run' system.
