摘要： A forming tool for use during a process of converting a glass tube into a glass container, includes a base portion comprising a fluid cavity for containing a fluid and an insertion portion extending from the base portion. The insertion portion includes an external surface sized to fit into an opening of the glass tube. In embodiments, the insertion portion comprises a fluid opening extending from an interior surface thereof to the external surface, the fluid opening configured to deliver the fluid from the fluid cavity between the insertion portion and the glass tube. In embodiments, the forming tool comprises a thermally conductive insert extending through the base portion and the insertion portion, the thermally conductive insert extending through the fluid cavity such that the fluid in the fluid cavity regulates a temperature of the thermally conductive insert.
