Review on ๐Ÿฆˆ SharkBite 24626LF 90 Degree Hose Bibb, 1/2 inch x 3/4 inch, Multi-Turn Brass Valve by David Padilla

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Low flow - can damage pressure washer pump

After installing this valve to replace an old leaking assembly, what I noticed the most was that there was no flow. I've checked the Sharkbite website and literature for information on bitrates, but they don't like to share that information. Much luck! When I measured flow rate (time to fill a 5 gallon bucket) I found that my pressure washer's output was greater than the flow coming from this valve. I had to ask a neighbor for a tap to connect the washing machine. The old valve needs to be replaced or repaired.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Don't really like it, it's ok
