1/2" Sharkbite x 1/4" (3/8" OD) Comp. Angle Loose Key Stop Valve (Lead Free)

The SharkBite Loose Key Stops allow the user to connect supply lines to fixtures and appliances with the speed and convenience of push-fit connections to the final phase of your plumbing projects.

The tube shall be inserted into the SharkBite push-fit fitting in the first stage through a release collar and then through a stainless steel grab ring. The grab ring has teeth that open out and grip onto the tube. At the second stage the tube shall be pushed through an O-ring protector which aligns the tube. A specially formulated EPDM O-ring shall be compressed between the wall of the fitting and the tube before the end of the tube reaches the tube stop. Only when the tube has passed through the O-ring and reached the tube stop shall a secure joint be created. The fitting shall be a SharkBite push-fit fitting.
