Copper ferrules

Didn't I see someone post an article or video about making ferrules out of copper sheet and tubing? I sure recall such a thing but can't find a reference to it.

Guys,
In searching for posts on copper ferrules, looks like this was the most recent post with the topic. (Mods, please move this if you have a better section – Thanks)
Only issue is that I’m looking at using copper wire ferrules as a possible packing material and wanted to see if anyone has used them before. At $7.00 for 100 pcs, I figured it was a good deal and grabbed a bag.
I also thought about using em (at a larger wire gauge) on copper plates in my column.
I think they’ll be fine, but figured I’d ask. I’ve only ran pot stills so far, but my reflux build is getting closer to complete every day.
Cheers,
Irish

I believe copper mesh would have MUCH more surface are by volume ratio in comparison to those copper ferrules. Those copper bits would likely be very inefficient in comparison.

Thanks guys!

I’ve seen the all copper scrubbers used before, as well as the copper mesh rolls.
Looking forward to getting my reflux completed.

Thanks again!
Cheers
Irish.

I fixed it for you. You need a space after the colon. Still doesn't seem to take you where you wanted to go though.

You know that was 4 months sgo, right? The post I sought was actually on another site and used 1/4 in copper tube as the flange angle. Great utube video. Worked out fine, thank you.
