Meet the Homewerks 1/2 in FIP x 1/2 in FIP 16 in Braided Stainless Steel Supply Line—the durable, flexible connection your faucet deserves. Built with a braided stainless steel jacket, this line is designed to withstand daily use while protecting against kinks, abrasion, and leaks in busy kitchens and baths.
Designed for reliable faucet connections, this 16-inch supply line fits standard 1/2" female iron pipe (FIP) threads on both ends, giving you a straightforward, universal replacement for worn or corroded lines. The flexible braid makes installation easier in tight under-sink spaces and helps reduce strain on connections when your faucet is in use, so you’ll experience fewer leaks and less fiddling.
Why this supply line stands out
-
Braided stainless steel outer jacket delivers superior durability, corrosion resistance, and long-lasting performance under typical household water pressures.
-
1/2" FIP x 1/2" FIP ends provide broad compatibility with common faucet and shutoff valve fittings.
-
16-inch length hits the sweet spot for most under-sink layouts, offering enough slack to prevent strain without excess bulk.
-
125 psi working pressure supports standard residential supply without compromising safety or function.
-
Low lead content (less than 0.25%) supports safer potable water and peace of mind for everyday use.
-
Bagged packaging helps keep the line clean during storage and handling before installation.
Ideal uses and scenarios
- Replacing aging faucet supply lines in kitchens and bathrooms where leaks or stiffness have become an issue.
- New faucet installations that require a reliable, flexible connection between the faucet and shutoff valve.
- Renovations or upgrades where a more durable, easier-to-install line is preferred over rigid copper or plastic options.
- Homes, apartments, or rental units where long-term reliability and low maintenance matter most.
Practical installation tips
- Shut off the water supply and relieve pressure before starting. Have a bucket or towel handy for any residual water.
- Wrap Teflon tape (PTFE) on male threads if needed to ensure a tight seal with FIP connections, then thread the new line by hand until snug before final tightening.
- Use a wrench to snug the fittings gently—avoid overtightening to prevent thread damage or leaks.
- Inspect for leaks after the first turn on; if a leak appears, tighten a quarter-turn at a time until secure.
