BUBBLE CRIMP ONE-PIECE COUPLING (GLP)
When installing 1 piece couplings it is recommended that the
hose is marked with the insertion depth from each cut end . This
way there is a mark to verify the coupling has been fully inserted
into the hose .
In order to achieve the correct crimp be sure to align the
coupling in the die as shown in Figure 14 .
For Die Series:
71, 72, 73, 74 & 75
Measure Crimp Here
Align staked end of the ferrule
(fitting end) flush with the die face.

AIR CONDITIONING COUPLINGS (ACA)
When crimping couplings for use with refrigerants be sure to
fully insert the hose into the coupling, a small hole is located on
the ferrule for visual confirmation of the hose insertion . No skive
or buff is needed or recommended for Polarseal hose and ACA
couplings . During crimping center the bands of the crimping die
on the ferrule as shown in Figure 15 .
