Tom,
If you8 cut the tube at exactly 90 degrees and tighten the fittings just the
right amount, not doo much or too little you can get by with out the
inserts. I would use them because with them you can make all the mistakes
and they still seal. Don VS

Subject: nylo-seal and "inserts"
The spruce catalog says that the 259-N nylo-seal inserts are not
necessary when using the nylo-seal (nylon) tubing with the Nylo-seal
fittings, but are to be used with polyethelene tubing. Yet Van's
drawing #49 for my 6A shows them being used with the nylo-seal tubing
and people seem to always mention the inserts regardless of tubing type.
Are the inserts really necessary if you use the right tubing?
Thanks,
