SharkBite 2XL are a commercial range of SharkBite fittings and ball valves, compatible with copper, PEX and CPVC pipe. SharkBite 2XL fittings are certified for use in commercial and residential applications for potable water, hydronic heating, chilled water and general water distribution for irrigation.
SharkBite fittings are compatible with soft copper. Just make sure not to allow the pipe to bend near the fitting connection. This particular coupling (SB0135) works with 1-1/4" (i.e. 1-3/8" OD) copper, PEX, or CPVC. You would need to use a SharkBite U020LF coupling with 1" nominal (1-1/8" OD) copper.
