1 Select a nut that is long enough for the fitting you'll be
using.
3 Carefully slide the ferrule components on after the nut
and then finger-tighten the assembly while ensuring
that the tubing is completely seated in the bottom of the
end fitting.

2 Slide the nut over the end of the tubing or capillary.
4 Use a column or injection valve to gently tighten the fit-

capillary.
NOTE
Don't overtighten. Overtightening will shorten the lifetime of
the fitting.
