Reply to comment by Frosty-Start-4559 in Toilet water supply valve.. by DappleDoxies

Buy all the parts you might use first. If possible at least two ways of doing it.

You don’t want to discover that you can’t get parts and you can’t put the old one back on so you have no water in your house.

Also quarter turn for the win.

Had this recently when replacing one of these valves. Despite cleaning it, the pipe had a deformation that stopped the ring from crimping properly, and lead to a slight leak. I didn't have another ring to try again further back, and all the stores were closed.

Guess who now has a compression shutoff soldered onto their toilet supply.
