I was about to run and grab one of these at Home Depot (they call it "sleeve puller") but I tried putting the old fitting back on loosely, and wiggled it a bit while pulling. It worked!
Hola Roman I just place the amazon link where to buy it in the description of this video.. Just so you know I have a channel in Spanish. It is called "Alex the handyman en Español:"
This tool you used is listed on amazon as being 15mm to 22mm is that the correct tool for this half inch copper pipe and fitting? need to know before I purchase it if it will fit all my standard sink and toilet valves I need to replace. thanks
@@ramonestrada38 Hello Ramon In US most sink, vanities and toilets supply lines are 1/2 copper, This tool is only for 1/2 and 3/4 copper pipes. Imperial sizes are measured using the approximated bore diameter, for instance the outside diameter of 1/2 copper is about 15mm and 3/4 is about 22mm. Let me know how it goes.
Thank you very much for taking the time to make this video. I wanted to ask you how much do you have to turn for the final tightening of the nut. Is it a quarter turn or a half turn.
Hello Richard, The old angle valve nut to the tool? You want at least a couple turns so it has a good grab. When you turn the tool handle, it is pulling the valve nut, bringing the sleeve at the same time. I hope this answer your question. Thanks so much for subscribing.
@@richardl341 Hello Richard as hard as you can. All the way. tight! ( just using hand wrenches) AS you tighten it is going to compress the sleeve and make a positive seal. If is loose it will leak or the water pressure will pop it out. Thanks
Thanks!
good job Alex 😎👍
Great Video. Thank you for sharing

Hello Muddywater. Yes the 15mm is for 1/2 in
and the 22 for 3/4. Let me know how it goes. Please don't forget to subscribe if you haven't.
@@alexthehandyman3494 For 1/2" U.S. valve threads mine are 12 mm. 15mm does not work.

Sorry,
I wanted to ask for tightening the nut with ferrule to the new angle stop. How many revolutions or turns are needed. Thanks
