The present invention provides an integrated valve, push connection and push release components, and a valve mounting assembly for use on fluid, air or gas applications. The invention allows for the installation of the valve by sliding the valve over the supply tube / piping or pushing the tube / piping into the valve. Once connected, an o-ring seals the connection, a packing gland applies energy to the o-ring seal maintaining constant, even pressure across the seal, and a grip ring applies opposing energy to prevent the disconnection of the assembly. The quick connection assembly is retained by a retaining cap, which applies constant, positive force on the sealing surface.
