Warranty & support

RWC's US warranty is system- and product-specific. It lists 25-year coverage for specified combinations such as SharkBite PEX pipe with SharkBite rings or clamps, and EvoPEX fittings used with SharkBite PEX pipe; other products have different periods and conditions. Installation instructions, approved pipe combinations and proof-of-purchase requirements apply.

02 / Company & ownership

Behind the brand.

SharkBite is RWC's plumbing brand for push-to-connect fittings, PEX pipe, valves and related connection systems. The range began in Australia in 1998 and entered the US in 2004. A tool-free connection claim does not remove the need to verify pipe material and dimensions, insertion depth, pressure and temperature ratings, potable-water approval and local plumbing code; concealed or regulated work may require a licensed plumber.
