A swaging tool for swaging a fitting to a tube includes a tubular housing having a first jaw unit on a first end portion of the housing and a closed cylinder at a second end portion of the housing. The closed cylinder has a port for receiving pressurized fluid. A ram is movable in opposite axial directions in the closed cylinder of the housing. A piston having a second jaw unit is located in a middle portion of the housing in engagement with the ram. A stabilizing pin is slideably received through the piston and into the ram. Bearings are located on an end of the stabilizing pin and on the ram to react the moments generated during swaging directly into the housing. |
