turn expands the tubing smoothly
and evenly. reposition the head after each expansion to prevent
potential leak paths in the tubing. otherwise, the segments on
the tool head may cause deep grooves in the tubing, resulting in
potential leak paths. See
Figure 4-4
.
note:
it is not necessary to rotate
the tool in only one direction.
alternating the turning direction will
ease expansion in confined spaces.
See
Figure 4-5
and
Figure 4-6

tubing.

process until the tubing and

shoulder on the expander head.
the recommended number of
expansions for the 2" h head
is five.
note:
only use the 2" h-series
expander head on the ProPeX
