/* Compression Straight Stop Valve */
The following lines were added (+) and removed (-):
This compression shutoff valve has compression fittings on both ends, of different sizes.  The inlet connection is 1/2" compression for pipes with 5/8" O.D. and the outlet connection is 3/8" OD compression.  This is designed to be used with braided stainless steel connectors or risers.  So the connection bath would be from the fixture, to the stainless steel connector, to this shutoff valve, then to the /2" water supply copper pipe.This compression shutoff valve has compression fittings on both ends, of different sizes.  The inlet connection is 1/2" compression for pipes with 5/8" O.D. and the outlet connection is 3/8" OD compression.  This is designed to be used with braided stainless steel connectors or risers.  So the full connection path would be from the fixture, to the stainless steel connector, to this shutoff valve, then to the 1/2" water supply copper pipe.
