CONDUIT CONNECTOR AND METHOD

A conduit connection joint is formed to connect a tube (10) and afitting body (12) in fluid tight relation. The joint is made by axially compressing the tube (10) in a bore (14) in the fitting body (12) so as to cause formation of a first bead (52) in a bead formation area. Further axial compression...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A conduit connection joint is formed to connect a tube (10) and afitting body (12) in fluid tight relation. The joint is made by axially compressing the tube (10) in a bore (14) in the fitting body (12) so as to cause formation of a first bead (52) in a bead formation area. Further axial compression of the tube (10) causes the sequential formation of an additional bead (54) in the bore (14) so as to provide engagement between the tube (10) and the fitting body (12). The engagement of the fitting body (12) and the tube (10) may be further strengthened by axially compressing and radially expanding the beads (52, 54).
