Swaging Tools are used as an economical method for joining copper tubing by eliminating the need for a coupling. Once the swage has been made, the tubes can be easily sweated together with solder. General’s 4-Piece Swaging Set gives you four of the most popular sizes, ranging from 1/4” to 5/8”. The hex-shaped body prevents the tool from rolling and limits the potential for binding in the tube. Made from heat-treated alloy steel for maximum durability.
• Four popular sizes – 1/4”, 3/8”, 1/2”, 5/8”
• For use on copper tubing
• Eliminates the need for a coupling
• Made from heat-treated alloy steel
