Level up with our monthly two-hour seminar

Swagelok Tech Clips are a great option for quick distance learning. Take your skills to the next level with our two-hour in person seminars, like the one on tube fitting installation safety. We offer that just about monthly.

A majority of technicians responsible for installing and maintaining tubing systems have never had an opportunity to learn the correct assembly procedure from the company that invented tube fitting. In this popular seminar you learn learn correct fabrication procedures, practice applying thread sealants and lubricants, and review factors that help determine when tubing is better than pipe. You get reference materials, handy items that simplify on-the-job fabrication, and earn an official Swagelok Certificate of Completion.

Make a plan for training your team

Every individual and operation can improve, and the right training can quickly pay for itself. We can enhance seasoned employees' skills and bring newer employees up to speed faster.

Choose from standard options or create a custom program to cover small bore tubing systems, regulators, or other fluid system topics. Hold just one event... hold a series of related events... or hold semi-annual trainings. Location is flexible too.
