I am installing a new bathroom in the basment. All of the piping is CPVC. I was going to cut in two cut off vaules outside the bathroom on the hot and cold side. However the ones I picked up are made of CPVC/plastic and I am having second thoughts about them. All of the valves I have ever used were brass.

They are 3/4 stop and waste vales, manfufacturer rates them for hot and cold water but no pressure rating. They are made by American Valve.
 
Thanks for the input. Since posting and doing more reading it sounds like I should go with ball valves instead.
