SharkBite 23036-0000LF Brass Push Angle Stop, 1/2 in. x 3/8 in. Compression, Chrome

I've purchased so many of these after purchasing from Amazon, replaced all my water valves with these. Great quality valves. Easy to turn, simple push till click instalation.

Work wonderfully, don't have to have crimping tool or compression fitting stuff or like the old days of sweating copper with a torch. Too pricey to do a major project, but when you have a few to put in, worth every penny. Most recent project used two on PEX tubing. Cut tubing with cutter, mark correct depth and debur the PEX and slide it in. Too easy! Works on copper pipe also, and I have used SharkBite fittings on copper pipes with equal ease!

Worked like a charm. My home has/had plastic one piece water valve for the sinks & toilets etc. Over the last year I have begun to switch them out for new valves and new water lines. I was using the compression type of angle valves and came onto Amazon to order some and saw the SharkBite angle stops 1/2 inch for copper lines which is what we have. I ordered two of these to see if they worked as advertised and put them on today. So easy and no issues at all! I cut the old valves off with my dremel and the used emery cloth to clean the copper pipe really well and then in one motion press the fitting on firmly until it stops. I then gave a good tug just to be sure they were locked on. After hooking up the water lines and turning on the water, they work fine. (I did have my son on the phone as I turned the water on outside in case one blew off). I have checked them several times since earlier today and no signs of leaks. I'll check them over the next few days. I am very impressed with this product. So much easier than using two wrenches and using a compression style fitting which can take additional tightening, time, etc. I will be ordering many more of these as I switch out more of the valves and lines. I am including pictures of the old and the new SharkBite valves.

really easy to install

Easy to use. SharkBite quality (that's good), SharkBite price (they are expensive). You wouldn't want to do a lot of plumbing with these because of the price but they are great if you are in a hurry or it's an emergency.

I have had great success with all Sharbite products. They are consistent on quality with all varieties I've used. Installation is a breeze by just cutting the old pipe smooth and pushing the Sharkbite onto the pipe. Be sure to push all the way on for secure leak free operation. The 3/8" compression fitting connects up just like any other fitting. The shutoff valve is a big plus requiring only 90 degree turn to go from full on to off. No more turning and turning to get the valve to shut off.

Previous shut off valves were so old and corroded. When I tried to turn them off, the lever instantly broke off and spewed water everywhere for a good 20 minutes. Had to shut water off and do some mitigation ordered these that night at 10 PM to deliver the next day before 3 PM. Watched a YouTube tutorial video. Took off the old valves, then cut the pipe with a Dremel. Sanded with a very fine grit paper. Wanted it as perfect as I could make it. Installing these is so easy, I almost didn’t believe they would work. Was so scared to turn my water back on, but when I did and saw that they were functioning properly, was very happy couldn’t be any more simple. There’s no need to look at any other brand or style a shut off valve. Lamborghini of shut off valves. The sanding I did to the pipe took more time and labor than installing those.

So long story short, I removed the brass compression ring with an extreme amount of effort and while I was doing this, the copper pipe was shrinking, due to being compressed. So when I went to put a normal 5/8 OD on after the removal, it didn't fit and just slid on and off the pipe. I ordered this in desperation because my water has been off since I had an open pipe and it was too late at night to call plumber to solder on a new pipe. I popped this on in 5 secs and turned the water back on to check for leaks while testing the open and closing of the valve. It is perfection. Saved me so much money and time. There are little teeth grooves on the inside so I can see why this won't be coming off. I am not certain how the no leaking works but I don't even care at this point. Words cannot express how grateful I am. I will only ever buy these going forward. Amazon also did an amazing job by having this delivered at 740am in the morning when I ordered it just before midnight. Thank you...thank you..thank you.

Literal la mejor calidad

I started using these shut off valves for all my sinks and toilets. Very easy to install and have never had one leak or drip yet. 1/4 turn opens or closes the valve, and you only have to cut and clean the pipe, then press fit on and you're done. These are removable, so I guess when or if one ever fails it will be an even easier replacement.

Product shipped as advertised

Replaced a 3 year old dripping compression fitting under a bathroom sink. First time using SharkBite after years of DIY sweating of fittings and I won’t go back to sweating again. Similar price but much quicker and no risk of overheating the cabinet or fittings.

amazing product, so nice and easy to use, however the price point is much higher that it should be for this product.
