Metal Tube Beading

Are there any fabricators out in CC world that have Parker design beading tools for puting a raised bead near the end of mild steel tube? I want to get four 3/8 tube nipples made for soldering into brass Weber carb fuel inlet fittings.

Dan:

Several vendors that make threaded brass fuel line fittings have a 3/8" tube with a barb that could be cut off or perhaps a steel 3/8" line much like a "Brake Line" can have a bead put in it with a flareing tool.

Call an Earl's vendor. Earl's has tubing beaders for any size tube.

Thanks. I just bought a set of Aircraft Tool Supply Company's beading tools.
