Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these valves lead-free?

Yes, they are manufactured from FDA-compliant, non-toxic materials and are certified lead-free.

Can I use these with hot water lines?

These valves are made from polypropylene and are generally intended for water applications; please verify your specific system temperature limits against the valve's technical rating.

Do I need a wrench to install these?

The push-fit side requires no tools. You may need a wrench to tighten the 3/8 NPT threaded side into your port.

Can I reuse the valve?

Yes, the push-to-connect design is intended for multiple connections and disconnections.

What is included in the pack?

This package contains 5 units of the John Guest 3/8 OD x 3/8 NPT shut-off valves.

Troubleshooting

The connection is leaking.

Remove the tubing and inspect the end for scratches or debris. Cut off the damaged section of tubing to get a clean, square end and re-insert.

Tubing will not stay locked in place.

Ensure you are using the correct size tubing (3/8-inch OD) and that the tubing is fully pushed past the collet O-ring into the fitting stop.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Tool-free installation saves significant time and effort
  • Highly reliable leak-free performance
  • NSF and FDA certifications ensure safety for potable water
  • Compatible with both plastic and soft copper tubing
  • Corrosion-resistant materials for long service life

Cons

  • Not suitable for use with rigid metal piping
  • Must be used within specified pressure and temperature ranges
  • Requires proper tube cutting tools for a flush, square end

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a proper connection, use a sharp tube cutter to prevent crushing the tube end. When inserting into the `3/8 NPT` threaded side, use an appropriate thread sealant if required by local plumbing codes, though the push-fit side requires no sealant. For maintenance, keep the fitting clean and free of debris. Always inspect the O-ring seal if the valve has been disconnected multiple times to ensure it has not been compromised. Store in a cool, dry place until use to keep the polypropylene material stable.
