Double Flaring Tool
Get the job done in half the time
Step 1
Loosen Locking Screws
Loosen the (2) 10 mm locking screws to allow tubing to be inserted into the tool.
Step 2
Flush Tubing with Positioning Bolt
Insert tubing through the small opening of the tool. Tighten locking screws lightly. Insert the positioning bolt into the large threaded opening of the tool and tighten. Slide the tubing inward until flush with positioning bolt.
Step 3
Tighten Locking Screws
With the tubing positioned flush against the positioning bolt, tighten the locking screws to firmly secure the tubing. Unscrew and remove the position bolt.
Step 4
Starts with the OP1 End and Lubricate the Punch
Starts with the OP1 end. Lubricate the OP1 end of the punch with the included die lubricant.
Step 5
Create Bubble Flare
Insert the OP1 end into the large threaded opening of the tool.
Tighten the punch with a 17mm wrench. The OP1 punch then makes a bubble flare.
Unscrew and remove the punch.
Step 6
Create Double Flare
Now, lubricate the OP2 end of the punch (opposite of the OP1 end) with the lubricant. Insert the OP2 end into the large threaded opening of the tool.
Tighten the punch with a 17mm wrench to complete the double flare.
Final Step
Unscrew and Remove the Punch
Unscrew and remove the punch. Loosen the locking screws to retrieve the tubing from the tool.
The 45 degree double flare is now complete.

This thing is worth every penny, IMO. I have used a more conventional flare tool for some time. I would file, chamfer, use a vice and line everything up right, and maybe 1 in 3 tries it would yield a quality flare. This tool? Right out of the box, perfect double flares. No vice needed, and it will work on the car. It’s awesome and man do I wish I had bought it years ago. It would be nice to be able to flare other sizes, and also if it came with one wrench with a 10 on one end and 17 on the other, but these aren’t complaints really. I love this thing. Buy it, you will wonder why you didn’t get it sooner.
