The coned and threaded tubing ends for the medium, high and ultra
high pressure connections may be supplied by any of the following:
1. Standard length tubing nipples with ends prepared. Maintained
in stock—ready for shipment.
2. Special length tubing nipples with ends prepared. Specify length
required (up to 22 feet long). Add coning and threading charge
to tubing price. (While not in stock, special length nipples can be
furnished quickly for prompt delivery).
3. Preparation of tubing ends at your own facility by hand tooling as
described in this section.
The coning and threading tools are designed for simple yet accurate
preparation of tubing ends for the medium, high and ultra high pressure
connections. A liberal amount of cutting fluid should be used, and a supply
is furnished with each order for tooling. Interchangeable spare parts allow
easy change over from one size tubing to another on both the coning and
threading tools. Note that the reseating tool is not required
for tubing preparation.
Coning Tools
The coning tool is designed for preparing a “cone” on the ends
of Medium, High and Ultra High Pressure tubing. Included angle
of the cone is approximately 57 to 59 degrees. The cutter and
collet are interchangeable on all of the assemblies (except
2-HF9 and 2-LF9) to permit changing from one size tubing
to another.
