Karl...
Be clear that there is 1/8", 3/16", 1/4", 5/16", 3/8", 7/16", 1/2", 5/8", 3/4", and 7/8" compression fittings (and even larger sizes)... you want the 1/2" compression valve..not the 5/8" compression.
And to make matters worse, I have noticed that the shutoff company that supplies home depot has now started to refer to the 5/8" compression stops as 1/2" nominal compression.. so be careful when choosing the shutoffs. As stated, you want the 1/2"OD compression stops...not the 1/2" nominal... BUT You know that now..don't you... ;)
The chrome or brass I mentioned only has to do with choice on the valve finish (chrome or brass)... so that will not help you in finding correct shutoff!
Will look forward to your post!
Thanks... MARK
