Imperial swaging tool
Howdy all,
I'm trying to find a swag for making joints on flared compression fittings.
I had one given to me years ago but had it pinched on site a few months ago and I can't find one for the life of me.
I've been doing a lot of maintenance work lately and coming across these more often. I'd like to remake joints where possible instead of changing them, plus i'd want it for underground fittings.
Can anyone help me out?

Nope, that's the kind of thing I keep finding when I search for it, I may even be using the wrong term for it but swaging tool is what i've always known it to be.
The ones I keep finding online are for socket formers for making soldered joints without fittings. Not what i'm after
I've looked at swaging punches and they look very similar. Maybe they'll do the job.
Cheers bud.

A swagging tool is for forming a bell end on the tube for taper fittings, used mostly for oil
It sounds like you are looking for the tool with a ball bearing that forms a ring on the end of the tube, to replace the olive.
I got a 1/2" one but can't remember what it's called. ( a ring roller or something like that)
