How Many Times Should PEX be Cut To Install Flair it PEX Straight Valve Stop
Updated 09/02/2025 | Published 08/04/2025 >
Question:
Regarding this valve and pex tubing, do I cut the pex only ONCE? Will sharp tin snips cut the pex? This is for a shut off valve behind RV toilet.

Hey Pat, yes you'd need to cut the PEX just once to install the Flair-It PEX Straight Valve Stop Fitting # FL25VR that you referenced.
