SHARKBITE'S GREAT

Cut the tube and squeeze the shark bite. Works every time. Saves so much time and eliminates assembly and torch hassles.

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • I won't say anything

The best and easiest to use!

Best and easiest to use! They are much better and easier to use. They are a bit more expensive but make everyone look like a pro!

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • Good but not great

. I've installed at least 20 Sharkbite fittings on various plumbing projects and have never had any leaks, some fittings are years old. I even had an uneven notch in the copper in one narrow spot and I was sure it would leak, but to my surprise it didn't leak at all. And you can even rotate the tube on the shark joint to adjust. Sharkbite and PEX saved me a lot of time digging through copper and cutting galvanized pipe to length. love these products.

Pros
  • Great for a small home.
Cons
  • . Crumpled packaging.

I like SharkBite but not this one

I have used many SharkBite components. They usually work well on static connections. I've used SharkBite for SharkBite, SharkBite Tee, and SharkBite MNPT. It all works great. However, this FNPT connection is very poorly designed. It is non-tapered and comes without a washer or gasket to prevent leakage from the FNPT side. Worse still, there is no surface to press on with a washer or gasket. I have tried various combinations of washers and pipe sealant but have not been able to stop the leaks…

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Weight
