  2. Flare fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flare_fitting

    In a flare fitting the tube itself is "flared" i.e. expanded and deformed at the end. The flare is then pressed against the fitting it connects to and is secured by a close-fitting nut that ensures that no leakage happens. Tube flaring is a type of forging operation, [1] and is usually a cold working procedure.

  3. Cold working - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_working

    In metallurgy, cold forming or cold working is any metalworking process in which metal is shaped below its recrystallization temperature, usually at the ambient temperature.. Such processes are contrasted with hot working techniques like hot rolling, forging, welding, etc. [1]: p.375 The same or similar terms are used in glassmaking for the equivalents; for example cut glass is made by "cold ...

    Although they are usually used to attach pipe and fittings to mechanical supports in buildings, they do not connect the pipes. Fasteners commonly used with piping are a stud bolt [26] with nuts (usually fully threaded, with two heavy, hexagonal nuts); a machine bolt and nut; or a powder-actuated tool (PAT) fastener (usually a nail or threaded ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robertson_screw

    The original purpose of the taper was to enable the screws to be made using cold forming of the heads, [3]: 79–81 but the taper has two other advantages which have helped popularize it: It makes inserting the tool easier and it helps keep the screw on the tool without the user having to hold it there.

  7. Swaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swaging

    A finishing operation, shaping, cold works the points on the tooth sides to flats. It might be considered as a side swage. This slightly reduces the tooth width but increases the operating time between "fittings". Swaging is a major advance over filing as the operation is faster, more precise and greatly extends the working life of a saw.

    Material is generally annealed between each drawing pass to increase its ductility and remove internal stresses produced during the cold working. Annealing : This is a thermal treatment generally used to soften the material being drawn; to modify the microstructure, the mechanical properties, and the machining characteristics of the steel; and ...
