Metallurgy makes or breaks tube fittings
the soft component with a hard one provides intimate metal-to-metal contact over the contact surfaces and overcomes surface irregularities. (A good source of detailed information is Industrial Sealing Technology, H. Hugo Buchter, John Wiley and Sons, 1979.) Manufacturers applied this concept to tube

Stainless Steel Tubing vs. Copper Tubing in Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers
black particles that adhered to tube surface. Cooper has also been known to accelerate fuel-degradation process, forming particulates. On the other hand, far fewer solid and gum were produced by fuel when exposed to steel and stainless steel. The reports recommend using steel piping materials

Case Study - IR Processing of Metal Coatings
Consumers of coated metal, wood, paper, glass, plastic and textile products are demanding attractive, long-lasting, wear-resistant surfaces. At the same time, stricter safety and environmental standards are forcing manufacturers to look at new types of finishes, e.g., water- based and powder

Clsoing the Gap on Hydraulic Leaks
. The 316 stainless-steel tube has a /8-in. OD, 0.38-in. wall thickness and is rated to a working pressure of 3,300 psi. Swagelok two-ferrule tube fittings create a metal-to-metal seal that stands up to a wide variety of fluids under high pressure. The fittings are manufactured in various materials

Measurement & Analysis of Hose Crimp Pressures During Manufacture and Assembly
Hose failures or leaks often occur at the "crimped" or clamped end of a hose, where the metal tube is sealed against the hose. Insufficient pressure in a small region of the "crimp" creates a weakness in the seal and provides an opportunity for a leak to develop. The thin. Hose Crimp Pressure

Cable Carriers
take many forms (an open style chain, snap-open chain, fully enclosed tube) and is available in a variety of materials (all-polymer, hybrid polymer/metal, all-metal). Individual manufacturers even refer to this carrier element using different terms (cable carrier, cable management system, guidance
