Brass PEX-to-sweat adapter, 1-1/4 inch, no-lead forged finish

Legend Valve

Legend Valve 460-626NL 1-1/4" PEX x 1-1/4" Sweat Adapter plumbing

SKU CH-EG5H-KXKWX

A 1-1/4" PEX-to-sweat adapter in no-lead, dezincification-resistant forged brass

  • No-lead DZR forged brass prevents contamination
  • 1-1/4 in PEX to sweat connects dissimilar pipe
  • California Proposition 65 cancer warning applies
  • California Proposition 65 reproductive-harm warning applies
  • Manufacturer drop-ship on orders of $75 or more

Application and user

This adapter connects 1-1/4 inch PEX tubing to a 1-1/4 inch sweat copper joint in potable-water systems. It suits installers working on residential or light-commercial plumbing projects where a lead-free transition is required.

Replacement and upgrade

The fitting replaces older brass adapters that may contain lead, allowing compliance with current no-lead regulations. The jump is worthwhile when local codes mandate DZR forged brass for corrosion resistance in aggressive water conditions.

Standard and limits

The sweat end requires copper pipe preparation and soldering skill, so it is not a push-fit or press connection. Installers without torch equipment or certification for sweat joints should choose a different connection method.

Clean the copper pipe, apply flux, then heat the joint evenly with a torch until solder flows; avoid overheating the adapter body.
