TAPERED NUT FOR TUBE OR PIPE FITTING

摘要

A drive nut (918) for a fitting includes an interior socket centered on a central axis and configured to receive at least a rearward portion of a conduit gripping member. The socket is defined by a radial drive surface (932) positioned to engage the conduit gripping member during pull-up, a first tapered longitudinal surface (940) radially outward of said drive surface and a second tapered longitudinal surface (934) between the drive surface and the first tapered longitudinal surface.
