These are similar to Shark Bite® but a different trade name.
They are flexible stainless with the ends already attached.
I used them on the water heater in my shop 5-6 years ago...so far so good.
I do keep an eye on them though.

I get it, believe me. We had our kitchen remodeled, and a plumber did the water works. I'm getting old, and with arthritis, unless I can sit at a bench and solder, I'll probably hire any plumbing out again.
