Appendix J. Using Swagelok Fittings
J-2
First-time assembly, metal tubing:
Extra care is needed to avoid overtightening brass fittings when used with
metal tubing. These notes apply to reducers and port connectors as well as
metal tubing.
No insert is required with metal tubing.
1.
Do not remove the nuts and ferrules from the fitting. Simply insert the
tube into the assembled fitting until it bottoms out.
2.
Rotate the nut finger tight.
3.
While holding the fitting body steady, tighten the nut until it feels
tight. This will normally be less than one full turn. Tightening a full
one and one-quarter turns will damage the threads on the fitting and
nut.
Reassembly, plastic or metal tubing:
You may disassemble and reassemble Swagelok tube fittings many times, but
the assembly process is slightly different than the first assembly.
1.
Insert the tube with pre-swaged ferrules into the fitting until the front
ferrule seats against the fitting body.
2.
Rotate the nut finger tight.
3.
While holding the fitting body steady, tighten the nut slightly with a
wrench.
