leak

[BarryJ]

I have a leak in my water supply line, and going to replace the pipe and use compression fittings. Can I reuse compression fittings??? I have one already on one side of the pipe I'm fixing.
Thanks

Do not reuse compression fittings, once there compressed there done.

I agree, I had a leak at my dishwasher, and it did not help I reused the old one in a pinch.
I finally just changed the entire line to a braided stainless steel, with no comppression fittings.
No leaks. No more hassles.
