Abstract
Various embodiments of mechanism for attaching a high pressure tube to an opening in a housing using a tapered opening into which a high pressure tube end is inserted. A securing device is positioned about the tube end and the securing device is press fitted into place in the opening so that it is press fitted not only to the housing on an outer diameter portion but also inwardly against the tube end, sealing the opening and the tube so as to hold about 5,000 p.s.i. pressure and also securing the tube against forces tending to move the tube axially or rotationally so as to loosen the tube.
