ABSTRACT "Formed fluid coupling apparatus" This disclosure relates to apparatus for making fluid flow connections. The apparatus comprises a tubular metal member having first and second ends. The first end is mechanically formed to the shape of one part of a two part quick-connect coupling, the one part being integrally formed on the first end of the member. The second end is mechanically formed to the shape of another fitting part which is also integral with the member. The portion of the member between the two ends is shaped to follow a desired path in order to interconnect other components. The one part of the quick-connect coupling preferably forms a tubular receptacle having an annular internal groove, a snap ring in the groove, and a relatively viscous fluid at least partially filling the groove around the ring. The disclosure also relates to a method of making and assembling apparatus as described.
