drops leaking

[philkasza]

We were wondering how to put drops together in a fast way with out haveing to use hot water. Because when we used hot water they leaked. Any thoughts ?
thanks Philip Kasza

A tubing tool works very well for me.

tubing tool...All the way!!!

are you hitting both barbs on the fitting? the other thing is if you are using a specific type of tubing you might want to stick with that type of fitting. once you hit that second barb they shouldn't leak!!! Leader fittings I noticed are now made with slightly larger barbs, they are a little more of a pain to get together but once they are on they are on!!! I use leader fittings with lapierre tubing they seem to work very well together.

I simply use Leader everything.
