Re: Help with fittings
Author: sharp1 (IL) If the end with the O-rings is brass, possibly they could be cut off and a length of soft copper slipped inside and soldered to it. (remove the O-rings first). Then the options to attach the copper to the stop valve would be many. Or, maybe the soft copper could be soldered directly to the valve body. Edited 1 times.
