Sharkbite sbds123838 Dual Shut-off Stop Valve

Product Description

The SHARKBITE sbds123838 is a dual shut-off stop valve designed to control water supply to two fixtures from a single inlet connection. With a 1/2-inch inlet and two 3/8-inch outlet ports, this valve allows a plumber to isolate downstream fixtures independently without shutting off the full supply line. The compact body measures approximately 3.8 inches in length, 2.8 inches in width, and 1.3 inches in height, making it suitable for tight rough-in spaces. Weighing 0.5 pounds, it installs quickly and is well suited for under-sink and appliance supply applications.

This dual shut-off valve is used in residential and light commercial plumbing installations where a single supply line feeds two fixtures, such as a faucet and an icemaker, a dishwasher, or a toilet and adjacent fixture. It is typically installed under sinks, in vanity cabinets, or in utility spaces where access to individual shut-offs is required. Licensed plumbers and experienced plumbing contractors are the primary installers of this fitting.

• Lightweight at 0.5 pounds for easy single-hand positioning during installation

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Shut off the main water supply and relieve line pressure before removing any existing valve or fitting. This valve is installed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Verify that all connections are fully seated and leak-free before restoring water pressure. Do not overtighten compression fittings, as excess force can deform the ferrule and cause leaks.
