Can I use a Sharkbite connector on PEX-A?

[rkb]

DIY'er here.

I understand that I can use a Sharkbite connector on PEX-B, but can I use them on PEX-A as well? I am converting from copper to PEX-A in the crawlspace and don't have the courage to sweat the copper to PEX adapter so I'm thinking of using a Sharkbite coupler for that connection. Can I use Sharkbite in this instance?

Thanks,
Rob

Yes.

You can use one of the things on https://www.sharkbite.com/products/brass-crimp with PEX-A, but you can also use the Sharkbite push-on connectors, which you are probably thinking of.

Sorry, yes you're right, I'm thinking of the push-on connector.

Thanks for the support!
