Models 131 and 132 may be substituted for Models 141 or 142 for plugging purposes. For plugging larger sizes, use a pipe plug in air inlet pipe thread of 14 Series tool.

Tube OD is the first consideration in determining the proper model of the 12, 13 or 14 series tool. Using the appropriate chart, select the model closest to your tube OD. Then find the seal nearest the tube ''ID'' and the collet nearest the tube OD. The seal and collet sizes then follow the model number to complete the tool description.

For example: If your tube OD is .753'', find the nearest collet size, which is .750''. This indicates that the model will be a 143. Next find the closest seal size to your actual tube ID. If your ID is .638'', the closest seal will be .635''. From this information you can determine the exact tool description as shown here. Use the model number (143) followed by the seal (.635) and collet size (.750). A tube with these dimensions would require Model 143-.635x.750.

Note: In the case of a seal falling midway between two sizes, select the smaller size. And when a collet is midway between sizes, select the larger.
