A: SharkBite male/female adapters can be used to connect PEX pipe to other threaded pipes for potable water applications, as long as the thread patterns and diameter are the same. If you have further questions you can visit www.sharkbite.com or contact Customer Service M-F, 8am-5pm at (877) 700-4242.

A: It's actually 1/2" female swivel.
Just received mine; the ad says it's 3/8 X 3/8 but it is not.

A: It's 1/2" FNPT. I have no idea why SharkBite and Home Depot insist on labeling it as 3/8" x 3/8" online when the packaging clearly indicates 3/8" x 1/2".

A: Just returned two of these. Description and specs incorrectly say 3/8 pex and 3/8 fpt. The threaded end is actually 1/2" pipe.
