I know they will Tom. I feel more comfortable with some form of mechanical connection holding the thing together. My brother plumbed his house with all shark bite fittings. When I saw his handiwork, I nearly pissed my pants laughing. It looked like a 5 year old put together a plumbing erector set in his basement. He then paid a company to finish it in steel studs and drywall concealing all his handiwork. Million dollar house with a ticking time bomb. Shark bites have their place (Push on type) but for me, I prefer something more permanent looking! Having said all that, yes I would absolutely trust them when you need to fix something in a pinch and then leave it be. Maybe I am mentally OCD?? Well, my wife thinks so.
