Video Transcript for Review of Flair-It RV Fresh Water - PEXLock Swivel Female Adapter Fitting 1/2 Inch FPT - FL87ZR

Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a real quick look at this Flair-It PEXLock swivel female adapter fitting. Now, this RV freshwater plumbing swivel adapter 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 3/8-inch crimp connection with the PEXLock clamp means that you don't need any specialized tools for a secure fit.

This reusable PEXLock clamp is going to be installed with just a pair of pliers and then can be removed with a bladed screwdriver. The 1/2-inch FPT connection is going to fit hoses or tubes with a 1/2-inch MPT fitting, and that swivel connection is going to reduce stress on your hoses or pipes. So to install this, it's going to be pretty easy. You're just going to slide the PEXLock clamp over the end of the pipe and you wanna make sure that it is flush with the straight cut end. And then you'll 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 gonna use a pair of pliers to squeeze together the two ears on the clamp until you hear a click or until the two ears overlap and engage each other. On your screen, I am including a brief demonstration, a photo of what this is going to look like when this is installed. So it's gonna be a very easy install and the connection's going to be very secure for you. Overall, we've been very impressed with how secure the connections have been on other Flair-It fittings that we have tested. So once you have this installed and you have the clamp secured in place, you're really not gonna have to worry about this fitting at all.

You're not gonna have to worry about any potential leaks. It's gonna be secured and tight for you. And then to remove the fitting, you'll just carefully use a bladed screwdriver. You remove this PEXLock clamp and then you can remove that fitting from the pipe or the hose. This durable fitting is reinforced to prevent any cracks from stress.

And 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.
