Hand Swaging Tool : AFTC-CT-23
The item shown is the AFTC-CT-23 Hand Swaging Tool, an all-in-one manual T-handle tube expander designed for quick plumbing and refrigeration installation.
Technical Specifications
- Compatible Tube Sizes: Features a multi-step cone layout supporting 7 fractional sizes:
- 1/4″ (6mm)
- 5/16″ (8mm)
- 3/8″
- 1/2″
- 5/8″
- 3/4″
- 7/8″ (22mm)
- Material: Built from high-quality alloy steel for durability and reliable heavy-duty leverage.
- Handle Layout: Ergonomic T-handle shape that maximizes hand torque without needing a hammer.
Key Operational Advantages
- Hammerless Expansion: Unlike punch-style swaging pins, this tool works by applying manual rotational pressure to smoothly stretch copper or aluminum walls.
- Reduced Joint Leakage: Allows you to insert one line straight into another of the same size, cutting coupling fitting costs and potential leak points in half.
- Portable Package: The compact, self-contained layout eliminates the need to carry separate flaring bars or loose adapter heads.
Step-by-Step Usage Guide
- Clean the Cut: Cut your tube perfectly square and use a reamer to remove all inner burrs. Leaving burrs can cause the pipe to split during expansion.
- Soften Hard Metal: If working with rigid, hard-drawn copper lines, heat the tip to a dull red with a torch and let it cool naturally to soften (anneal) the metal. Soft copper coils do not require this.
- Insert the Step: Push the matching stepped cone size straight into the mouth of the tubing until it meets resistance.
- Expand and Rotate: Apply firm downward pressure while twisting the T-handle back and forth in a circular pattern. Continue rotating several times to stretch the tube walls evenly until the desired depth is reached.
