About SharkBite 1/2 Inch x 50 Feet Red PEX Pipe Flexible Water Tubing for Plumbing
Overall Feedback:
89% positive
92% praised for its long-lasting material, while 8% experienced early degradation
The tubing delivered did not match the dimensions specified in the description.
The item of type B is extremely rigid and difficult to work with. It also does not straighten out.
92% found it easy to install
I found that warming up the tubing-hoses was suggested by most people, but I left it outside for an hour in Texas and it was still easy to use.
I can easily cut with the tool and after clamping with the required tool, it does not leak and can be rotated around the bronze connection with the clamp still on.
91% liked its flexibility, but 9% found it too stiff
I was not able to get rid of the curve in the tubing-hoses despite trying various methods to straighten it. I read that some manufacturers make a cheaper version but the reduced cost results in less flexibility.
92% liked the performance, but 8% found clogging very much
The tubing delivered to me did not match the dimension of 3/8 inch either inside or outside.
I tried to straighten the tubing-hoses but it did not work.
91% like the perfect size and fit, but 9% found it tight
I find the tubing-hoses a bit awkward to work with, but not difficult.
I tried to use the tubing-hoses in a straight configuration but was unable to do so despite trying various methods to straighten it. I even tried to fill it with hot water and hold it straight, but it still did not work.
