So, when I bought the 1/2" sharkbite coupling, I assumed (you know what happens when you do that) it meant for 1/2" pipe.
Nope, it's 1/2" itself. Next size up is 3/4"?? That won't happen.
Help? Thank you!
EDIT: A friend and I cut a piece of copper pipe where there was a pinhole. The hole was too close to an existing connector (previous repair) to use a sharkbite, so we cut the whole piece with connector. Tried a slip coupling which wouldn't go on as far as it was supposed to to be able to get the pipe in the other end. Of course, it won't come off now (removal clip not working...maybe I'm not pulling hard enough...).
SO, we decided to try 2 connectors with a new piece in between. I bought what is pictured in a reply below and now this issue stated in the initial post above.
