[VAC] Copper Pipes



I am dealing with the same problem today.  At first I assumed that the
non-standard size must be due to freezing.  Then I discovered that while
some of my new fittings would not fit over the tubing in the coach,
other new fittings fit just fine.  There may be some manufactuing
tolerance issues here.  I finally sanded and ground the fittings or tube
ends that wouldn't fit until they did and completed the soldering.
