The collet includes an inner end having a first lip portion which extends about and overlaps a periphery of the base adjacent to the shoulder and an outer end having a second lip portion which is beveled in a concave fashion to overlap and receive the end face of the connecting member. The first and second lip portions are joined by a continuous outer wall having a diameter greater than that of the tube end and the base, and an interior wall extending between the first and second lip portions having a diameter less than that of the tube end and base.
