Found this, squeeze out of a tube to eleminate the need for soldering copper tubing, OK in the US?:

Looks like it is sold(available?) all over the US, anyone have any experience with this?

Sounds great. I checked the outlets here in Florida and they're all in hardware stores. I'd feel a lot better about using it if I could find one plumbing supply house that carried it. Any word about this from t5he inspectors? Would the job passed if the copper was glued instead of soldered? Any experts out there with experience?

Never used it. However, have seen it in several customers houses wondering what it was...
