pro press on baseboard

Is it always necessary to use a stiffer fitting when pressing copper baseboard tubing? I would be doing this on baseboard that has 180 degree water. Normally I would solder this, but this is a repair in a tight location. I saw where NIBCO makes a stiffner to go over the thin wall tubing I just have not used one before. Thanks to all

I unknowingly pressed together a baseboard job many years ago and it has never presented any problems. Wasn't Slant/Fin though… some other brand.

the tubing in the baseboard i used to heat my workshop in the basement is about the same thickness as the aluminum fins
