So I just bought an RODI unit and I am having the hardest time finding parts that fit my cold water supply under my faucet. I tried using a 3/8 and a 1/2 angle stop which seem to be the most common sizes and it will not fit. I cannot find any other angle stop valves/water feed valves in any other sizes. If you know where any might be, please point me into that direction. Thank you.
 
1/2 is just a tad bit too big but 3/8 does not fit at all

7/16” is in between those.. they have them but mostly compression fittings.. you might have to buy some adapters to make it all work.. if I seen exactly what you’re doing I could lean you the right direction..
 
This is for supply I’m assuming and you are trying to come out straight from a shut off valve?

Thanks, I'm just trying to install the angle stop valve to my cold water supply. Any idea where I can get one? I can't find any at that size.
 
Common problem, u need "adapter" from "that" to normal 3/8 thread....

Not sure how u call it, or where to buy it, but here, any hadrware or plumbing store have such things, just take problem to store and i'm sure they will know exactly what u need.
