Which flaring tool is right for you?
Every 4LifetimeLines flaring tool makes clean, leak-free flares. The right pick comes down to how often you flare, the tube sizes you run, and whether you want cutting and bending built in. Here's how they stack up.

Step by step
How to use this tool
The Hydraulic set uses up to 10 tons of force and a three-die sequence for effortless, repeatable 45 degree double flares. Slide the fitting on before flaring.
Prep the tube
Square-cut the tube, ream the inside and chamfer the outside, then lightly lube the end with clean brake fluid.
Slide the fitting on
Fit the tube nut first, with the threaded end facing outward.
Clamp in the split die
Close the matching split-die halves around the tube with the alignment pins seated, set them in the yoke, and finger-tighten the clamping screw with the tube end just past the die face.
Set the depth (OP0)
Insert the flat OP0 die, close the release knob, and pump the lever until the tube sits flush with the die face, then open the knob.
Form the bubble (OP1)
Swap in the OP1 die, lock the clamping screw tight with the bar, close the knob, and pump until the die meets the die face.
Finish the flare (OP2)
Swap in the conical OP2 die and pump again to fold the finished 45 degree double flare. Open the knob, remove the tube, and inspect.
Tip: always practice on a scrap piece of tubing first, and slide the tube nut onto the line before flaring — a finished flare won't pass back through the nut.
