All the answers I read here are worthy - there are good reasons to sweat and

faucet in a family room 19 years ago, and closed the supply - hot and cold -
with shark bite end caps -- no problem so far - pretty comfortable with them,
and used them again 5 years ago in a bath remodel - still perfect. They've
been around too long to be faulty without all of us DIYers not hearing about
it.
They use o-rings to seal, correct? If so, what is the o-ring material?
