Doing The Work Is The Best Way To Learn...We changed Some Hard Angle-Stops!

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

The video highlights the new SharkBite compression angle stops (1/2-in x 3/8-in) that will be installed. For removal and installation, a specific angle stop wrench (like the one shown) or a ratchet with a suitable socket is recommended for ease of use in tight spaces. Traditional adjustable wrenches can also be used but may be less efficient. Pipe thread sealant (also known as pipe dope or thread compound) should also be ready.

Goal: Prepare all necessary tools and new compression angle stops before beginning the replacement process. This includes specialized wrenches for removing and installing compression fittings, and thread sealant.
