Swage Connection (Fig. A, E, F)
WARNING: Prior to use inspect all workpieces for cracks,
defects or wear. Defective workpieces may shatter.
WARNING: It is the responsibility of the trained installer to
ensure proper brazing techniques are followed.
CAUTION: Using incorrectly sized swage heads may result
in faulty connection, possibly resulting in damage to property.
nOTE: Deburring is recommended before expanding
copper tube.
nOTE: Before first swage, apply included D
expander grease to the swage cone.
To create a proper swage connection:
1. Select appropriate swage head
Chart) to match the copper tubing and, if needed, remove
any dirt and debris.
2. Using a clean, lint-free cloth, apply a thin coat of D
DCE400GR expander grease
before attaching swage head. DO nOT over-lubricate.
3. Grasp the tubing no closer than 6" from the end to
be swaged.

4. Insert the tip of the swage head into the end of the
copper tubing making sure that the swage head is fully
inserted and flush with the copper tubing.
nOTE: If burrs on the copper tubing prevent the swage head
from being fully inserted, insert the front step down feature
on the swage head and squeeze the trigger switch to expand
the tubing until the swage head can be fully inserted.
5. Hold the tubing firmly so that it does not rotate with the
swage head.
6. Squeeze the trigger switch
to expand the copper tubing. The jaws
head will continue to open, close, and rotate until the trigger
switch is released.
7. Release the trigger switch once the expansion appears
complete and test fit the joint. Repeat steps 4-6 if necessary to
expand slightly more.
nOTE: Prior to installation inspect joint for cracks, defects
and proper fit before brazing.
nOTE: The number of expansions needed may vary
depending on user preference.
Two-stage swage heads
The three smaller swage head sizes are designed with a
two-stage internal adjustment mechanism allowing for the
expansion of the copper tubing to be done in two stages.
nOTE: Having the expansion done in two stages will help in
reducing the risk of cracking.
To create a proper swage connection using a two-stage
swage head:
1. Select appropriate two-swage head (refer to Swage
Head Chart).
2. Rotate the front collar
into position 1 as shown in Fig. E. Rotating the front collar of
the swage head will move the jaws
backward and forward by a few millimeters.
3. Insert the tip of the two-stage swage head into the end
of the copper tubing making sure that the two-swage head
is fully inserted and flush with the copper tubing.
4. With the collar of the two-swage head in position 1
squeeze and hold the trigger, allowing the jaws to expand
the tubing 2-3 times.
5. Rotate the front collar of the two-stage swage head into
position 2 as shown in Fig. E. With the head still flush with
the tubing squeeze and hold the trigger, allowing the jaws
to expand the tubing 3-4 times. The swaging operation is
now complete.
