3521-1008 Pex Quick Connect Drop Ear Elbow, 1/2 In. Fip, 90 Degree

The Watts 3521-1008 is a plastic quick connect drop ear elbow designed for fast, tool-free plumbing connections. This 1/2 inch FIP fitting allows you to join PEX, copper, CPVC, LPDE, MPDE, HDPE, and polybutylene tubing without tools, special inserts, or complicated assembly. Simply push the pipe into the fitting until it seats, and pull back the ring to disconnect—making it ideal for new installations, repairs, and retrofits where speed and simplicity matter.

The fitting features stainless steel gripping teeth in the collets that bite into pipe ends, creating corrosion-resistant connections that hold securely across multiple pipe materials.
