Most Liked Positive Review

Believe the hype

I had the unfortunate opportunity to use this product when a gate valve failed in my supply line. Even with 40 psi of water gushing out of the pipe, this valve went on with just a firm push and stopped the leak. The ball valve seats tight too. No leaks since, and, in my opinion, much better than a gate valve. I plan to use these to replace aging valves throughout my system, since you don't have to redo the lines, break solder etc., just cut and push. Voila!

No. Hire a plumber

These are horrible. They will hold for a little while. Then when you go on vacation they will give out and flood your house! It happened to me. Anything that pushes on is clearly not good. Do yourself a favor and hire a plumber to do it right. Carpenters like to put them in. Which is shame on them. They need to stick to what they know how to do

Q: 1) what's the difference between this product and the other 1/2" shutoff, SKU:24735LF ? I only need a couple, so the extra cost would be worth it if there is some benefit. 2) when inserting into a pipe, what is the gap - i.e. how much pipe needs to be removed so that this valve will fit correctly ?

This product (22222-0000LF) is a standard SharkBite Ball Valve while the 24735LF is a Slip ball valve. The slip feature makes it easier to install in some copper applications. The 22222-0000LF measures about 3.06" long, while the slip valve 24735LF requires 2" of piping to be removed for installation. Please see the following installation guides for more info on removing pipe for installation: http://s3.supplyhouse.com/product_files/Cash-Acme%20-%2022222-0000LF%20-%20Install%20Instructions.pdf http://s3.supplyhouse.com/product_files/24735LF-product.pdf

Q: I have heard that the sharkbite conections can only be used with Pex-b and not Pex-a (i.e. AquaPex or the Propex system). In researching I find that both types of Pex have the same manufacturing specs regarding diameter so am curious why they would not work with Pex-a.

SharkBite fittings may be used with either PEX-A or PEX-B tubing. However, only PEX-A tubing may be used when connecting with ProPex expander fittings.

You can use this to replace a gate valve, however, it is a ball valve not a gate valve. It will work like a ball valve.

Yes, these can be used to effectively replace gate valves.

I know of no reason why a ball valve would not operate where a gate valve does. Having said this, I suggest reading wikipedia on gate valves (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gate_valve), then consider if there is any unique property of your gate valve which would make a ball valve less desirable. I can think of none, but I have been caught before!! Good luck.

Q: Are the sharkbite 1/2" ball valves releasable??

SharkBite fittings can be removed with the proper removal clip/tool.

- Sean A.

All SB connections are releasable. You can purchase the release tool for the size you are up against or you can size a adjustable wrench around the pipe and it works the same. The secret is push against SB fitting pull out pipe. I believe the SB website has a video if you need further detail.

Q: Product in picture looks like it is a regular ball valve with sharkbite fittings added to it. The others I see are more compact & look like one piece. What is the difference?

The item you would receive would be one piece with SharkBite fittings on both ends.

Q: how long do they last

Asked by 16 years ago

Verified Author and ReplyVerified Reply- PexSupply Staff

These SharkBite fittings have a 25 year warranty. If the fitting is installed properly there should be no reason that they would not last indefinitely in a system. If you were turning the valve on and off to an excess then you might wear the packing out but that would not effect the connection itself.

This specific SharkBite item has small traces of lead, but is approved in all states except California and Vermont.

There is a lead free version of this valve available, as with most Cash-Acme Sharkbite fittings. Just look for "LF" at the end of the product SKU.
