SharkBite4 Port Closed Crimp Copper Multi-Port Tee, Plumbing Fittings, PEX Pipe, PE-RT, 22785

Product is as ordered but did you seriously need to pack it loosely in a box literally that big wasted space my whole order could have fit in the said box and still had room to spare , economically speaking not wise

I used these on all my lines so in the future if I have issues , I can just turn off that one leaking faucet & change on my own schedule.

Nice copper brazed 1/2" PEX manifold. The end connections are 3/4" PEX and the body is 1" in diameter. While this is open ended, meaning there are 3/4" PEX connections on both ends, they are also available in closed versions with only one 3/4" PEX connection. 1" Copper bell mounts work good to mount these; they also allow the manifolds to sit off the wall which allows crimping without removal.I like these for "Home Run" PEX systems when you don't need a lot of water lines.The spacing is 2" on center which allows for either crimp rings or stainless compression rings.As a not be careful with your local municipality, while the National Electrical Code doesn't require bonding these manifolds to ground, some local municipalities do. While this is on and makes little sense some do. I would also size these at at least one port over what you need because it is a lot easier to plug one for now in order to be able to easily ad a line later.

This manifold worked excellent for my hot water distribution system and no leaks using pex crimp rings! I love the manifold for its fit and finish of all copper and the actual diameter of the manifold supply pipe size. I used this to install my new heat pump water heater using individual supply lines to all my fixtures using hot water. Works excellent it replaces a 1/2” copper supply main that fed all the fixtures. This unit is supplied by a 3/4” hot water pex supply from my new water heater. The flow and pressure using the manifold system is excellent!

I wanted to run water to multiple fixtures, but not have an ugly mess of pipe. This worked great!

Sizes stated are incorrect, actual sizes are 3/4 inlet and 1/2 outlets. Many reviews state this, can’t believe this hasn’t been corrected. I’m tempted to keep buying more return all of them until someone finally wakes up.Positive note: item appears well constructed, thick metal, outlets are sufficiently spaced, proper area for crimping.

Easily Modified to a 1" inlet size to handle the volume necessary for eight 1/2" ports.Using a tubing cutter to remove the end leaves 1" Copper pipe to sweat solder on a larger fitting.Pictured is a 90 Street Elbow with a 1" Pex to 1" ID Copper Sweat fitting.

Was looking for copper manifolds with 3/4" inlet and 1/2" outlets. I couldn't find at big box, didn't think I would find them on Amazon but did. They worked great and really made my install in a spec house I built look clean and professional.
