Review on 🔥 Flaring Tool - S.U.R. and R Auto Parts HFT50 by Daniel Jackson

I was about to replace all the brake lines on a pickup truck I'm restoring and had to do a lot of double expanders as a result. Since the truck has both 3/16" and 1/4" lines, this tool looked like it would get the job done. I've used these cheap flare tools in the past, but not only are they frustrating when you've bent a new line into a complex shape until it fits perfectly, you don't want to risk a cheap flare. a tool that turns your hard work into a trash can as a result of a crap bolt. This tool delivers absolutely perfect highlights every time and is very easy to use. My only complaint (not about the tool itself) is that their instructions are useless. I was able to find a short youtube video posted by a guy who took the time to show how to use it properly and when I saw what it does I figured out how to use it. One piece of advice is that every time you use it, thoroughly clean your pipes AND brake pads with your brake. You want these parts to be spotless, clean and dry! I have found that if there is traces of dirt, glue or grease on any of these parts, the tube will not stay in place during the flaring process. This is very important to achieve the perfect glare. Once I figured it out, I had no more glitches when using it. You should also apply a small amount of lubricant to the working ends of the small fittings to ensure a good flare. Not only that, they last a lot longer too.
