I used it on an out of round compression fitting on a toilet shutoff

toilet a year later. The 'plumber' had used too short of a tube and
crimped it before the gland nut was tight enough. I'm not saying to use
it every time, but sometimes it keeps you from being without running
water while you get the right parts.


God, I HATE compression fittings! Shark-Bites are TOOOOO cool!



I might be getting old, but I still prefer soldered copper fittings.
