Sharkbite fittings are not rated to ASTM D3139. They are certified to ASSE 1061
I'm now aware of any single use Sharkbite connectors. You could unscrew this and reuse in a different location after disconnecting whatever tubing you have connected.
You can reuse these many times, but you need an orange key, these look like the letter C and fit over the pipe. Once on the pipe you simply push toward the Sharkbite and it unlocks from the pipe.
You can use the Sharkbite fitting as many times as you want. Just purchase the Sharkbite orange plastic disconnect tool for 1/2 inch for a dollar or two. I would cover the threads first with Teflon tape, and then thread sealant.

SharkBite fittings should not be sweated to directly to copper, however copper pipe can be used with SharkBite fitting connections. If you need to connect 1" copper pipe to the male threaded end of a U140 fitting, we would recommend that you use a WP3-16 fitting.
You will need to use SharkBite part U139. It has a 3/4" SharkBite connection on one side and 1" male threads on the other.
You can use this 1" x 3/4" fitting. Pressure will not change but volume may.
No. The only ways you can connect to MANABLOCs are compression, crimp, and press connections.
Yes, the U134 will work for this.
These fittings will work as long as the temperature does not exceed 200 °F.
