Developed, engineered and manufactured in the U.S., push-to-connect fittings offer easy and fast installation.

NIBCO INC. expands its Wrot Racer® push fittings to include new configurations such as reducing and repair tees and couplings, additional sizes of male and female thread adapters, thread elbows and caps with drains.

The Wrot Racer line is designed to join copper, CPVC-CTS, PEX and PE-RT (with stiffeners) for easy transitions between piping systems. Featuring a patented fitting design, installations are easily made within seconds.

“We are always working to add new sizes that help our customers be more efficient,” said Marilyn Morgan, senior product manager-metal fittings, NIBCO. “Having these additional new configurations of our high-quality, U.S.-made Wrot Racer push fittings that are quick and easy to install is part of this initiative.”

Wrot Racer push fittings are manufactured in the U.S. of 99.9 percent pure wrot copper. Naturally lead free, the fittings feature antimicrobial properties and zero dezincification, providing for safe, clean drinking water connections for both residential and commercial applications.

Available in 1/2″ to 1″ sizes, the lightweight and compact Wrot Racer fittings are able to be installed wet or dry and can handle applications up to 200 psi and 200 degrees. The new fittings feature stainless steel gripper rings to ensure a secure connection. Wrot Racer fittings are ideal for tight-space installations and can also be removed and reused, avoiding wasted materials.

Manufactured from recyclable materials, Wrot Racer fittings are environmentally green and meet a variety of certifications and standards including ANSI/NSF 14, 61, 372 and ASSE 1061.
