- Air conditioning systems (split and multi-split units)
- Commercial and industrial refrigeration systems
- Heat pump installations
- Medical gas systems (where applicable)
Installation Guidelines
For best results, follow Lawton Tubes’ recommended installation process for copper tubing and solder-type fittings:
- Cut the tube square using a tube cutter or fine hacksaw (32-tooth blade recommended) and remove burrs with a file or scraper.
- Clean the outside of the tube end thoroughly with sandpaper or sand cloth to the depth of the fitting, ensuring no dark spots remain.
- Clean the inside of the fitting to the tube stop using a wire brush, sandpaper, or sand cloth.
- Apply heat uniformly around the fitting with a torch. The correct brazing temperature has been reached when the brazing rod melts upon contact. Remove the flame and feed the brazing rod slightly off-centre at the bottom of the joint, proceeding across the bottom and up to the top, then returning to complete the joint. Wipe off excess brazing alloy with a cloth.
