Application Notes

This set is intended for use with hammer-assisted manual swaging. Apply lubricant to the tubing interior before swaging to reduce friction and tube deformation. Ensure tubing is properly annealed and deburred prior to expansion. Avoid use on Type L or K hard-drawn copper without prior annealing, as this may result in cracking or distortion.

Contractor Use Considerations

• Suitable for HVACR system fabrication, line set modification, and refrigeration loop repairs requiring swaged copper connections.
• Compact set can be transported to job sites and used without powered equipment.
• Reduces the need for couplings or additional brazed joints in field-assembled piping systems.
