you guys have top notch product , flare fittings leak 5% of the time on steam systems, this is messing with my process control switches , i regret not using this system . the beauty is in the fact it seals the outside of the tube , not the inside wich is often seem welded resulting in leaks

Many instrument techs will lay out all the marks on the tube before making the first bend, using setback, and advance marks. Where can I find good information on that?
