16842 is a straight Flair-It plumbing adapter from Elkhart Supply, designed to connect 1/2-inch PEX or compatible polybutylene tubing to a 1/2-inch male pipe-thread connection. Its lightweight white plastic construction is suitable for fresh-water plumbing systems in recreational vehicles. The tool-free Flair-It connection uses a fitting insert and compression nut to secure the tubing. Confirm tubing compatibility and thread requirements before installation.
