Video Transcript for Review of Flair-It RV Fresh Water - PEXLock Male T Adapter Fitting 1/2 Inch MPT - FL84ZR

Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a real quick look at this Flair-It PEXLock Male T-Adapter Fitting. This RV freshwater plumbing T is going to connect pipes in your RV freshwater plumbing system whether you're needing to repair leaky connections or install new lines. This is going to work with your PEX pipes, PERT tubing, and IAPMO approved polyvinyl pipes. The 1/2 inch crimp connections on either side of this T with the PEXLock clamps that you see here means that you're not going to need any specialized tools for a secure fit. And the reusable PEXLock clamps are installed with just a pair of pliers, and if you ever need to remove this fitting, you'll just need a bladed screwdriver to remove the clamps to remove the fitting.

The 1/2 inch MPT connection is going to, obviously, fit hoses or tubes with a 1/2 inch FPT fitting. And to install this, you're just going to slide the PEXLock clamp over the end of the pipe or the tube that you need to install this fitting in. You wanna try to make sure that it sits flushed with the straight cut end as possible, and then you're going to insert the fitting into the end of the pipe, making sure that it meets the positive stop on the fitting. And then finally, you're going to use a pair of pliers to squeeze together the two ears on the clamp until you hear a click or until those two ears overlap and engage each other. On your screen, I am putting a photo there just to give you an illustration of what this is going to look like installed.

And once you have this installed and you have those clamps into place, this is really going to be a very secure connection for you. Overall, we have been very impressed with how secure the connections have been on other Flair-It fittings that we have tested, so again, once you have this installed, you're gonna have a really great, tight, secure fit, so you're really not gonna have to worry about it at all once you have this installed. To remove the fitting, as I mentioned, you're just going to carefully use a bladed screwdriver to remove the PEXLock clamp. And this durable fitting is reinforced to prevent any cracks from stress, so overall, a very strong, durable, tough fitting. Well, that's gonna wrap up our brief look today, I do hope that it was helpful for you.

Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.
