How do I Know I Correctly Installed a Swagelok Fitting?
Use the Swagelok gap inspection gauge. Swagelok gap inspection gauges assure the installer or inspector that the fitting has been sufficiently pulled up on initial installation. Because we hold the tolerances so tight on the Swagelok tube fitting, we can predict the gap between the body hex and the nut. You can check for proper pull up and make adjustments accordingly.
