Apxc3838 Pex Coupling Barb Fitting, Lead-free Brass, 3/8 In.

The Apollo APXC3838 is a lead-free brass PEX coupling barb fitting designed to create secure, reliable connections in PEX piping systems. This 3/8-inch coupling is ideal for both new installations and repair work in residential water distribution and commercial hydronic heating applications. By using lead-free brass construction, you ensure safe drinking water delivery while meeting health-conscious plumbing standards.

PEX piping systems require dependable fittings to maintain system integrity and prevent leaks. The Apollo coupling barb fitting resists dezincification—a corrosion process that degrades brass over time—extending the service life of your plumbing investment. Its compact design makes it easy to stock and transport, and its compatibility with multiple connection methods (copper crimp rings, stainless steel pinch clamps, and stainless steel crimp sleeves) gives you flexibility in your installation approach.
