UR3088FX15 — 15 IN WATER HEATER CONNECTOR (BULK)

The SharkBite UR3088FX15 is a 15‑inch stainless‑steel braided water heater connector designed for fast, reliable, and tool‑free installation. With a 3/4-inch push‑to‑connect inlet and a 3/4-inch FIP outlet, it creates a secure, watertight connection between supply piping and the water heater without soldering, glue, clamps, or unions.

Its flexible stainless‑steel braided construction helps accommodate tight spaces, offsets, and misaligned pipes while also reducing stress from vibration or expansion. The internal DZR lead‑free brass body uses SharkBite’s proven push‑fit technology, incorporating stainless‑steel grip teeth and an EPDM O‑ring to deliver a dependable seal—even on wet lines—allowing immediate pressure testing and fast turnaround for installers.

This connector is approved for gas and electric water heaters, including flue‑vented models, and is compatible with PEX, copper, CPVC, PE‑RT, and HDPE pipe systems. Rated up to 200 psi and 140–200°F, the UR3088FX15 meets potable‑water standards and is approved for behind‑the‑wall and underground installations when properly wrapped. The bulk packaging configuration makes it ideal for contractors, property maintenance teams, and high‑volume installation operations.
