The FIP (female iron pipe) inlet threads directly onto an existing pipe using pipe thread sealant, while the 3\/8-inch OD compression outlet accepts a standard supply line. The quarter-turn ball mechanism provides a fast, reliable shutoff with no tools required at the valve handle. Built from brass construction, this angle valve is well-suited for tight under-sink and behind-toilet installations where a 90-degree flow path is required. Licensed plumbers and experienced plumbing tradespeople are the typical installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis angle stop valve is intended for residential plumbing applications including ice maker supply lines, toilet fill valves, and faucet supply connections. The FIP inlet is compatible with iron pipe. The compression outlet connects to standard 3\/8-inch OD flexible supply lines commonly used in bathroom and kitchen fixture rough-in work. Its angle body design makes it a practical fit in confined spaces where inline valves are difficult to service or access.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch FIP inlet threads onto iron pipe using standard pipe thread sealant — no soldering required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch OD compression outlet accepts standard flexible supply lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuarter-turn ball valve operation provides fast full shutoff with a single 90-degree handle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFull-port design maintains maximum flow through the valve body\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction for durability in potable water plumbing systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAngle body configuration directs flow 90 degrees — ideal for wall-supply connections to toilets and faucets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with iron pipe on the FIP inlet side.

Shut off the main water supply and relieve line pressure before removing or installing any angle stop valve. Apply pipe thread sealant to the male iron pipe threads before threading the FIP inlet onto the pipe — do not overtighten. Connect the supply line to the 3\/8-inch OD compression outlet and verify there are no leaks under full system pressure before returning the fixture to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch FIP (Female Iron Pipe)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch OD Compression\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Quarter Turn Ball Valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePort Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Full Port\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Angle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7.8 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SHARKBITE CASH ACME\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: FIPA3838Z\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SHARKBITE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51561582821682,"sku":"FIPA3838Z","price":103.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/96e501d87ce8af669a6b82a078431096.jpg?v=1786465988","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sharkbite-fipa3838z-3-8-fip-x-3-8-od-brass-ball-angle-valve","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
