FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Quick Connect:
No tools, soldering, clamps, unions or glue required.
Cut pipe square, de-burr to remove rough edges/
debris, mark the pipe for correct depth and push to get a
pressure ready connection every time.
Quick Disconnect:
Disconnect in seconds by sliding the Shark Shifter De-
Mount Tool down the pipe to engage the demount lugs
and rotate clockwise to lock in the open position leaving
both hands free, you can now remove the pipe.
SAFE-Recessed Release Collar:
SharkBite 2XL requires a special Demount Tool and
cannot be accidentally disconnected/released.
Extensive Range Including Slip Feature
on Couplings and Tee’s:
When repairing or tapping into existing pipe with “Push-
Fittings” you must be able to either move the fitting or
the pipe to ensure the pipe is engaged fully into the
fitting. With rigid pipe like copper the only way with
“Push-Fittings” is to have a SLIP feature to allow easy
installation when tapping into existing pipe.
Easy Installation:
Unlike other tool intensive connection methods there is
NO need to send multiple fitters to a job, SharkBite 2XL
has been designed to be installed or removed by one
person. All fittings are lubricated for easy connection
and by fitting the Shark Shifter De-Mount Tool before
engaging the pipe the force required can be reduced
further. With the De-Mount Tool locked on you also have
hands free disconnection.
WET OR DRY: No waiting for copper tube to dry before
soldering or glue to cure, SharkBite makes an instant
connection.
No Tools:
Unlike alternative tool intensive connection systems,
SharkBite has no special tooling required for installation.
