Review on SharkBite U3086FLEX24LFA: 3/4 Inch to 1 Inch Water 🦈 Softener Connector - Push-to-Connect Copper, PEX, CPVC, Braided Stainless Steel by James Kelley

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Hard work made easy

I bought these to install a new water softener. I used a rigid pipe cutter, deburred the inside of the pipe, cleaned the outside of the copper pipe, and they stood up straight away and worked great - no leaks. Now with that said would I use these shark bite type hardware in the wall? Probably not, simply because the o-ring will break over time and I find it useful to visually inspect these types of fittings over time.

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Secret
