    spray nozzle replacement kitchen sink

    I have a Pfizer kitchen sink system with a spray nozzle. The nozzle is leaking and Pfizer replaced it but I can not understand how to disassemble the supply end of the connector. It looks like some kind of compression fitting without a compression nut relying on some type of gray(looks plastic) bushing or connector system element. How do you disassemble this connection?

    Try sliding the brass piece backwards as you pull the line outwards.

      That did not work. Is there a tool made for this fitting?

        Pfizer info...

        Did Pifzer not send the needed instructions with the repair kit? If not, I'd call their 800 number and talk with their technical support people about this model for the help you need.

          I believe it unscrews but does not have a flat for using a wrench...

          What does the new connector look like?

            answer

            This is a sharkteeth fitting. Take a good look at the picture and you can see a gray tube fitting over the spray nozzle supply line end. Push the gray fitting up with your finger or nail and this releases the sharkteeth like springs in the fitting and the supply line drops out easily. $80.00 lesson folks. They are easier to work with than screw or compression fittings.
