Installation Overview
Prepare the tube ends, push to full seat, and test under operating pressure.
Preparation
Cut Tubing Square
Use a sharp tube cutter. Avoid angled or crushed ends.
Deburr & Clean
Remove burrs and wipe debris so seals aren’t damaged.
Install
Push to Full Seat
Insert the tube into each port until it bottoms out. You should feel a firm stop.
Pull Test
Gently pull back on each tube to confirm the collet has gripped.
Support the Joint
Add a mount near the tee to minimize vibration and leverage on the fitting.
Pressure Test
Bring to Operating Pressure
Pressurize the system and inspect each connection.
Inspect for Leaks
If you see a drip, depressurize, re-cut the tube square, and re-seat fully.
