In-Line Flaring Tool Metric - Cal-van Tools

The Cal-van Tools 154 In-Line Flaring Tool Metric offers professional technicians a precise and efficient solution for creating high-quality flares on a variety of tubing. Designed for both on- and off-vehicle use, its low-profile design and innovative clamping mechanism ensure accurate, leak-free connections for critical automotive and industrial applications.

Key Features

• Precision In-Line Design: Engineered to align the adapters, cone, and tube perfectly, this metric flare tool consistently produces accurate single and double flares, minimizing rework and ensuring superior joint integrity.
• Versatile On/Off-Vehicle Operation: The tool's slender, low-profile design allows for convenient use in tight spaces directly on the vehicle, such as along frame rails or within engine compartments, saving significant time by eliminating the need to remove components or lines. It's equally effective for bench-top applications.
• Enhanced Tubing Stability: A robust double clamp and hex screw design securely locks tubing in position, preventing slipping during the flaring process and ensuring perfectly centered flares. This also contributes to the longevity of the clamp.
• Ratchet Compatibility: Designed to be used with a standard ratchet or wrench, the tool makes the flaring process easier and less physically demanding, improving efficiency for repetitive tasks.
• Comprehensive Metric Adapters: Includes 4.75mm, 5mm, and 6mm adapters, making it suitable for a wide range of common metric tubing sizes.
• Durable Construction: Built to withstand the demands of professional use, ensuring reliability and long-term performance in challenging workshop environments.

Applications

The Cal-van Tools 154 is ideal for creating flares on thin-walled steel and copper tubing. It is an essential tool for automotive technicians working on brake lines, fuel lines, transmission lines, and various hydraulic systems in both domestic and imported vehicles. Its precision and ease of use make it valuable for general industrial fluid transfer applications where reliable metric flares are required.
