Abstract
A die supporting ring member (67) is removably supported in an opening (20) of a surrounding frame (12). Pusher members (24,26) are positioned around the die supporting ring member (67) with sloping surfaces (28,30) in engagement with the circumferentially spaced dies (72) in the ring member (67). The sloping surfaces (28,30) are also engageable with sloped surfaces (32,34) in the frame opening (20). A piston and cylinder assembly (38) is mounted on the frame (12) for moving the pusher members (24,26) toward one side of the opening (20) causing them to slide along the sloping surfaces (32,34) in the frame opening (20) and move the dies (72) radially inward to crimp a tubular fitting positioned within the die supporting ring member (67).
