Reply to comment by roadfood in How can I add a second 1/4 inch water line to under my kitchen sink? by Apprehensive-Egg374

If the brass pipe coming from the wall brakes off, can I cut it and then deburr it, and then use this shark bite attachment?

Not a fan of shark bites so I wouldn't know.

Do you have any ideas of what I can do if the pipe breaks when I try to take the valve off? The other end of the pipe is far behind the wall and I don’t have access to it so I can’t take it off if it breaks. Just in case it breaks, what would you say I should do?

I'd call in a plumber at that point.
