SWAGELOC FITTING INSTALLATIONS
– NOTE –
High pressure line fitting at regulator should be tightened
until it bottoms. Make sure to use teflon tape on all male pipe
threads.
1.For Swageloc fittings not preswaged or for in-aircraft installation, proceed as follows;
a. Turn fitting nut onto fitting finger tight, and insert tube until it bottoms firmly on shoulder in
fitting.
b. Tighten nut with a wrench until tube will not turn by hand.
c. Mark nut at six o`clock position.
d. Hold fitting body steady with a backup wrench and tighten as follows:
(1) On tubing with a diameter bigger than 3/16 inch, tighten 1 1/4 turns (to nine o’clock
position).
(2) On tubing of 1/16, 1/8, and 3/16 inch diameter tighten only 3/4 turn.
e. If nut and tube must be disconnected from fitting, reconnect by seating tube on shoulder of fitting
and tightening nut finger tight. Follow up by tightening nut with a wrench, one quarter turn (if
absolutely necessary original 1 1/4 or 3/4 tight position) and then snug with wrench.
2. Preswaged Swageloc fittings are fabricated and installed as follows:
a. Assemble nut and ferrules finger tight on preswaging tool and insert tube until it firmly bottoms
on shoulder in tool. Preswaging tool can be attained from Crawford Fitting Company, refer to List
of Consumable Materials in Chapter 91.
b. Tighten nut on fitting just enough that tube within fitting will not turn by hand.
c. With a wrench tighten nut as follows:
(1) On tubing with diameters over 3/16 inch, tighten 1 1/4 turns.
(2) On tubing with 1/16, 1/8, or 3/16 inch diameter tighten 3/4 of a turn.
d. Unscrew nut to release ferrule-tube assembly from tool.
e. Assembly is installed on fitting as follows:
(1) Slide tube in fitting until it bottoms, turn nut to finger tight position, and tighten one quarter
turn with wrench.
(2) Snug slightly with wrench.
APPLICATION OF TEFLON TAPE THREAD SEALANT
All male pipe (tapered) threads of oxygen system should be sealed with 3M No. 48 teflon tape. Teflon tape
should not be used on straight threads. Do not use any other lubricants in place of teflon or on any other
threads.
1. Wrap tape on threads, starting with those farthest from opening, in direction of thread spiral. Circle
threads, making sure that each side of tape has a slight overlap.
2. Wrap tape such that it does not extend beyond last thread on fitting at opening. tape should then be
pulled till it separates. Do not cut tape, it will not stick properly.
