Apply a thin coat of heat-resistant sealant to the tubing and slip the ferrule over the end. Use a propane torch to heat the ferrule until it is glowing red and then quickly apply an appropriate wrench to tighten it in place.

How Does Swagelok Fitting Work?

Swagelok fittings are designed to connect tubing and pipe in fluid systems. They work by using a metal sleeve that is inserted into the tube or pipe to be connected. The sleeve has a number of slots around its circumference, which fit over teeth on the mating part. When the parts are tightened, the slots grip the teeth and create a leak-proof connection.
