38600 Quiet Pipes Water Hammer Arrestor, Washing Machine Supply Line

Water hammer occurs when a valve closes abruptly and water pressure surges through your pipes, causing loud banging. The Oatey Quiet Pipes Water Hammer Arrestor solves this problem by absorbing the shock of sudden water pressure changes, eliminating the noise and protecting your plumbing from damage.

This arrestor features a simple piston design that threads onto your washing machine supply valve. It can be installed on hot or cold water valves in any direction—horizontal, vertical or at an angle—making it a flexible solution for most installation scenarios. Installation does not require cutting your drywall.
