A fitting (14) incorporating a quick actuating sealing and locking device and methods of actuating the fitting and forming a seal between a length of corrugated tubing (10) and the fitting (14) are provided. The tubing (10) can be corrugated stainless steel tubing having a jacket (12) that at least partially covers the tubing. The sealing and locking device incorporates a sealing ring (24) and a loading ring (26)—received in the fitting (14), the sealing ring (24) being compressible against an end corrugation of the tubing—. The loading ring (26) can be actuated to move axially and engage the sealing ring (24), thereby compressing the sealing ring (24) into substantial engagement with the end corrugation.
