Hi all,

I’m looking for advice on how to get a leak free system. I simply cannot get the fingerTite SilFlow’s to stay leak free. I seem to be able to at first, but after a few temperature cycles it goes leaky again. Usually, I end up having to replace the ferrule to get back to square one, but the cycle repeats itself. I feel like I’ve tried everything.

I would even entertain any suggestions folks have for replace the MCD with something easier to get and stay leak free.

Cheers,

Chris
