HIGH PRESSURE CONNECTION SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR THEIR MANUFACTURE.

摘要

A high pressure connection and method for making a high pressure connection. The high pressure connection typically comprises two hollow, tubular members with a cured reaction product of a radically curable composition therebetween. The radically curable composition can be an anaerobically curable composition. The method includes applying a primer composition to one distal joint portion of a tubular member, applying a curable composition to one distal joint portion of a tubular member; sliding one distal joint portion into the other distal joint portion and curing the composition to maintain the second distal joint portion within the first distal joint portion thereby forming the high pressure connection. The method does not use plastic deformation of the first or second distal joint portions after the step of sliding. The method is advantageously useful for making high pressure connections in gas compression or refrigeration systems.
