This 18-piece set offers the versatility to produce both SAE 45° double flares and ISO/DIN bubble flares, making it an indispensable tool for servicing a broad spectrum of vehicles. It streamlines the preparation and flaring process for critical brake, fuel, and low-pressure hydraulic systems.

Key Features

• Dual Flaring Capability: Create both SAE 45° double flares and ISO/DIN bubble flares from a single kit, accommodating a wide range of vehicle makes and models, from classic American cars to late-model imports.
• Extensive Tubing Coverage: The hardened flaring bar securely grips 11 common tube sizes, including 3/16", 1/4", 5/16", 3/8", 1/2" (SAE) and 4mm, 4.75mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm (metric), for tubing up to a 0.040" wall thickness.
• Consistent, Professional Results: Engineered with positive clamping and a slotted universal yoke, this tool minimizes tube slippage and helps maintain alignment, ensuring repeatable, service-grade flares with every use.
• Complete Line Preparation: This comprehensive kit includes a flaring bar, yoke, various double flare adapters, a mini tubing cutter, and a deburring tool, providing all necessary components for effective line cutting, prepping, and flaring.
• Durable Construction: Components are forged from heat-treated alloy steel, ensuring the kit withstands the demands of daily professional use in demanding shop environments.

Applications

This kit is purpose-built for the fabrication and repair of brake, fuel, and low-pressure hydraulic lines on diverse vehicles, including older American cars, light trucks, and classic models, as well as many late-model imports that utilize ISO/DIN bubble flares. Its versatility also extends to general 45° flaring tasks in light industrial, plumbing, and HVAC applications where either SAE or bubble flares are specified.
