Product Description

Handheld flaring tools are gripped with one hand while turning their flaring cone handle with the other hand. They have multiple slots that hold tubing of different sizes and clamp it in place as the flaring cone presses into the end of the tube. Flaring tools create a funnel-shaped end (flare) that forms a tight joint with a flared tube fitting, eliminating the need for brazing or soldering. The flare height is adjusted by moving the tubing up or down in the slot before flaring. Tube flaring tools are commonly used to connect refrigerant tubing in mini-split systems.
