I do not recommend cold spring for equipment connections. cold spring will not relieve your stresses, it should be used to set displacement for clearance purposes. use loops.

is it ok to use cold pull
in pump suction/dicharge lines, to get the nozzle loads under controll?

ie loops vs cold pull which is better option?
