    The simple answer is NO.

    There may be a sharks tooth fitting that would work. I do not know enough about the sharks tooth, but one of the plumbing experts will be able to answer that.

    Can you unscrew the pipe? If so, why not use a CPVC to IP adapter and then CPVC pipe.

    What's a hot water line doing outside your house?
    Do you wish to replace the old galvanized or simply repair the leak? Back to you, Tom
