Double Flaring Tool Set for AC Lines
This 9-piece carbon-steel set is built for creating double flares on brass and aluminium tubing used in automotive air-conditioning systems. The kit includes a flaring tool, bar assembly and seven adapters to cover common tube sizes. It is intended for technicians and DIYers who need reliable flare joints for refrigerant lines.
Installation and Common Issues
The bar assembly clamps the tube while the flaring tool forms the double flare in one operation; alignment is critical to avoid uneven walls. Carbon steel adapters can gall on soft aluminium if not lubricated, and over-tightening the clamp may distort thin-wall tubing. Clean cuts and deburring before flaring reduce the risk of leaks.
Who This Suits and Who Should Look Elsewhere
Suitable for workshops and home mechanics servicing car AC systems that use brass or aluminium tubing with standard flare fittings. Not suited for jobs requiring single flares, metric bubble flares, or work on steel brake lines that need different tooling. Buyers needing hydraulic or powered flaring for high-volume production should consider other equipment.
