HVAC Swaging Tool for Six Tube Sizes
The Yellow Jacket 60460 swaging tool expands copper tubing for refrigeration and HVAC installations. It covers six compatible tube sizes from 3/16 in to 3/4 in, letting technicians form joints without separate fittings. The compact 5 1/4 in length fits into tight service panels and overhead runs. It is built for professionals who need reliable flare preparation on the job site.
Alloy Steel Body With Fixed Size Heads
The tool body is made from alloy steel for durability under repeated hammer strikes. Each of the six size heads is permanently formed into the body, so there are no loose dies to lose or misalign. The angled profile gives clearance when working close to walls or other components. Technicians can strike the tool directly with a hammer to swage the tube end in place.
Manual Operation Limits Speed on Large Jobs
Because the tool relies on manual impact, swaging each joint takes physical effort and time. On large commercial systems with dozens of connections the process becomes slow compared with hydraulic or powered expanders. The fixed six-size range also means tubes outside the 3/16 in to 3/4 in window require a different tool. Buyers who need faster throughput or larger diameters should consider powered alternatives.

Questions about this item
What tube sizes does the 60460 swaging tool handle?
It swages HVAC and refrigeration tubing in 3/16 in, 1/4 in, 5/16 in, 3/8 in, 1/2 in, 5/8 in and 3/4 in sizes.
What clearance is needed for the 5 1/4 in tool length?
The alloy steel body measures 5 1/4 in long, so allow at least that much straight access around the tubing.
How do I avoid cracking the tube when swaging?
Apply steady pressure with the correct size adapter; forcing the tool or using the wrong size often splits the tubing.
