OVERVIEW
Brass Push To Connect Fittings
Tectite by Apollo Push-To-Connect ttings are the fastest, cleanest and simplest way to join any combination of copper, CPVC, PE-RT and
PEX pipe without the use of tools, solder, open ame or glue.

Fitting removal and reuse is just as simple using a simple demount clip (sold separately). After assembly, ttings may be rotated for
