Will Sharkbite Work on Pvc

SharkBite PEX fittings make it easy to transition between pipe types during repairs. Fast, efficient and reliable, our transition fittings are compatible with Polybutylene, PEX, PVC, CPVC, PE-RT and SDR-9 HDPE, and are approved for behind-the-wall installation as well as burial.

Can SharkBites be used on Schedule 40 PVC?

Compatible with schedule 40, 80 and 120 PVC pipe. No special tools or glue needed for installing.

Why you shouldn't use SharkBite fittings?

A SharkBite fitting contains a rubber O-ring, which is not best for permanent connections. We don’t recommend using a SharkBite fitting outside because sunlight can dry out the rubber O-ring and cause it to crack or split.
