I am looking for a certain PEX piping connector

go here: http://www.mobilemart.com/class.aspx?d=07&c=807 and look through the Flair It fittings. I have had good luck with the Flair It fittings. No tools needed.

you need a shark bite to fip fitting OR you can use a sharkbite to MIP (male threads) and then use a regular 1/2"ips supply line like you would use to hook up a faucet under a sink. I used them to put shut offs and supply lines under my sinks and toilet

Thanks,
that last one looks like what I am looking for except, I don't need it as an elbow, so I am sure they must have it as a straight connector.

What you asked is called "barbed to FIP" adapter or connector. The last elbow in NancyL link is compression to compression, it doesn't have any female threads. The one that you asked about is like the 2nd one from the bottom in that link, only with female thread. Don't know if it exists though, I'm not a plumber.

Thanks everyone
That "Flair it" is just what I am looking for.
I need other fittings too, but couldn't find that one.
Now I know what to ask for

Watts and Seatec make PEX fittings.

Take your pieces to LOWES or some other like stores and I'm pretty sure they will be able to fix you up...

You can buy either a 1/2" FPT x pex fitting, or a 1/2" FPT swivel fitting x pex- the swivel fitting is easier to connect and disconnect.

There are many Pex Fittings and Connectors available.

It is called a female threaded adaptor, You can find them at Home Depot, Lowes, and about any plumbing supply.
