I have tried multiple manual flare tools and spent hundreds of dollars in the process of finding a tool that was easy to use and could produce consistent reliable flares. Until now I have not had luck. I’m just not good at flaring any kind of line…I don’t do it every day so I fall out of practice and it takes a lot of time to get the perfect flare. Woth this tool right out of the box with no practice I was able to make quick connect fuel lines to add a ethenol content sensor to a customer’s fuel system and repair multiple brake lines on a Gm vehicle and the same day make a fuel quick connect for bmw fuel pump. And bubble flares for the same car. Super easy and more importantly…consistent. cannot reccomend enough!

I have always wanted a real flaring tool and I have finally found one. it’s not cheap but it’s a real value compared to the same one sold Else Ware and its solid and will last a lifetime.

The quality of this kit is outstanding. It works better that anything I have ever used before. My only complaint is that there is no room in the blow-molded case for the additional dies I purchased, so now they have to be stored separately and that just screws with my tool OCD!Otherwise, these tools rock!

nice but can’t fit it in tight areas
Joe –
Awesome tool, wish I purchased it earlier. Makes brake line replacement a lot easier, and faster. Not a cheap tool, but anyone in the trade knows good tools don’t always come cheap. Worth the buy if you get suckered in to doing brake lines all the time .

I wish I had this tool 20yrs ago. I futzed and fumbled with the old style flaring tools for far too long. This thing makes factory perfect tube flares every time. From soft copper to hard stainless, it does it all.
