I have some 3/8 SwageLok tubing fittings. I need 10-mm fittings. Can I just swap the 10-mm ferrules into the 3/8 fittings to convert them? The difference in the OD of the tubing is 0.0187-inches.
Why do I want to do this? There are 10-mm ferrules on eBay for about $2.00 per set, versus $20 to $30 per fitting for 10-mm fitting.
The idea occurred to me because the SwageLok tube bender I have is the same tool for the 3/8 and the 10-mm.
