Question 1

What diameter Shark Bite Deburring and Depth Tool (1/2 or 3/4 inch) should I use for the copper pipe with 5/8 outside diameter? And what diameter connection clip (1/2 or 3/4 inches) should I use for the copper pipe with 5/8 outside diameter??

Accepted Answer

The "official" dimension of copper pipe with an OUTSIDE diameter of 5/8" is 1/2" CTS, where CTS stands for "Copper Tubing Size", and actually refers to the nominal INSIDE diameter of the pipe. So, this means that you will need to use the 1/2" deburring tool, and the 1/2" disconnect clip for your pipe. (The 3/4" tool and clip are for use with 3/4" CTS pipe, which has an outside diameter of 7/8".) Good luck. Carl

Question 3

Will this work on 1/2" PVC drinking water pipe ?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it will! It will work on 1", 3/4", 1/2", 5/8" and 1/4" plastic PVC pipe!

Question 4

I want a tool that will de-burr sched 40 pvc 1/2... 3/4 and 1" .... Will this tool chamfer the outer edge of the sched 40  pipe?

Accepted Answer

Simple Anser NO. Not for PVC Schedule 40 or any other schedule!

I order one and the diameter matches with the pipe diameter so the pipe never goes inside the tool. I check with Schedule 40 PVC pipe of size 1" and 3/4", it is the same size as the pipe.

I agree with Carl de Villar's review, not an expert but it may be a Nominal size issue. It should have a clear description!
