Heat pipe wick bonding through crimping

A method of forming a wick assembly is disclosed including positioning an inner ring in a first wick, positioning the inner ring in a second wick, abutting an end of the first wick with an end of the second wick, positioning an outer ring about a portion of the first wick and a portion of the second wick, positioning a mandrel within the inner ring, positioning a die about the outer ring, and applying a force to the die, wherein the force couples the outer ring, the inner ring, the first wick, and the second wick together to form the wick assembly.
