ABSTRACT:
A conduit connection fitting includes a core member having an axial bore therethrough and two or more spigot portions, and a sleeve member encasing a central part of the core member. The spigot portions extend beyond the ends of the sleeve member which may be constructed in two hinged halves, preferably of a moulded plastics material. The sleeve member is stepped adjacent each spigot portion to provide an annular rebate to receive a swagable collar. A conduit is combined with the fitting by swaging the collar to the conduit which fixes the collar and the conduit to the spigot portion.
A method of assembling such a connection fitting, the sleeve is positioned about the central part of the core member, such that the spigot portions extend beyond the ends of the sleeve. An annular slot is formed around the spigot by putting a collar around the spigot, which collar is supported by the rebate. The conduits to be connected are positioned in eah slot, and the collars are then swaged.
