Tube Fitter's Toolbox

The Ultimate Set of Fabrication Tools

Swagelok has put together a complete set of Swagelok® hand tools designed specifically for fabricating tubing systems with the three most common tube sizes - 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 inch outside diameter (OD). All tools are securely stored in a lockable, water-resistant, injection-molded case with custom foam interior and wheels for ease of use and transport.

Here's what is inside this wonderful toolbox:

• Clevis handle design provides enhanced leverage for bends greater than 90 degrees;
• Roll dies reduce bending force and tube ovality, as compared to conventional slide block design
• 1 to 180 degree bending range
• Includes sizes 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 inches

• Flare-out and work hardening of tube end is reduced 
• Knobs on handle are spaced in 1/8-turn increments to provide easy reference when advancing cutter wheel 

• For deburring the inside and outside diameters of 3/16 to 1-1/2 inch and 4 to 38 mm tubing 
• Steel blades for long life 
• Rugged, heavy-duty die-cast housing
