At times, the Swagelok SS Ferrules gets crimped tight into the SS pipe. In those cases, can these ferrules be forcefully removed and reused?
Or was this a result of faulty installation?

$\begingroup$ No, it can’t be re-used reliably, but you may consider the possibilty of soldering it. $\endgroup$– Solar MikeCommented Apr 23, 2018 at 11:40

$\begingroup$ Will that still work for the same pressure range? Or would it better to cut the ferrule and use new ones? $\endgroup$– karthikeyanCommented Apr 23, 2018 at 11:51

$\begingroup$ I still use and prefer soldering copper fittings to copper pipe... $\endgroup$– Solar MikeCommented Apr 23, 2018 at 12:00

$\begingroup$ My bad, I will edit the question for more information. My question is more oriented towards SS. $\endgroup$– karthikeyanCommented Apr 23, 2018 at 12:01
