Capillary tube length conversion chart, Example – Just Better Copper Capillary Tubing User Manual
Page 2
This conversion chart enables the user to translate
the recommended length of tube diameter into sizes
stocked by J/B. In using the chart it is recommended
that conversions be made using factors within the
unshaded area.
TO USE CHART
(1) Locate recommended cap tube I.D. in left hand
column.
(2) Read across and find conversion factor under
copper cap tube size.
(3) Multiply the given length of the recommended cap
tube by the conversion factor.

CAPILLARY TUBE LENGTH CONVERSION CHART
(4) The resultant length (Min. 5 feet/Max.16 feet) of
copper cap tube will give the same flow charac-
teristics as the original recommended cap tube.
EXAMPLE
Recommended cap tube: 9'–.040 I.D.
Locate .040 in left hand column and reading across
gives the following conversion factor: No. TC-36
(.62) and TC-42 (1.25).
Multiply the recommended cap tube length of 9'
by the conversion factor gives the following results:
5-1/2"-TC-36 and 11-1/4'–TC-42. Either of these
two cap tubes will give the same results as the
original cap tube of 9'–.040 I.D.
