Description

A flaring tool kit is essential for working with tubing, especially in automotive and plumbing applications. These kits allow you to create precise flares (expansions) at the end of tubing, which are crucial for secure connections. There are different types of flares, including single flares (simple 45-degree flares), double flares (45-degree followed by a smaller 37-degree flare), and bubble flares (specifically for brake lines). Flaring tools work with materials like copper, aluminum, brass, and steel. A typical kit includes the flaring tool itself, a tube cutter, adapters for various tubing diameters, and a deburring tool to remove sharp edges after cutting.
