Double bladder crimper

I wish I had bought this many years ago. Installs beautifully and cuts the time in half. If you have never used this STYLE before; read the instructions.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Reliability

Does not fit 5/8 as stated in the amazing description.

Beware if like me you bought this kit because the description says it expands 5/8"/8 hoses. Guess what it says about 1/2" power! Looks like a good kit. I will most likely keep it. But you need to light 5/8 copper, so I'm not happy with the description.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Looks Great - Brake Flaring Tool

This Flaring Tool looked great when I first opened it up. The pipe cutter works well and the deburring tool works great. BUT out of the 20 double flashes I tried I had maybe 2 good ones. The only reason I give this tool 2 stars is because I really liked the deburring tool. I've returned the tool with no problems, bought a ribbed model 23337-345DL and haven't made a bad torch yet.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Expensive

Surprised by other reviews

For such a price the kit works adequately. I bought this kit over a year ago and it was exactly like the Revain picture. Double flare adapters have a shank that is too thin and do not center well when flared. The bubble burner adapters could also be better designed. So I can agree with others that getting good flashes can be difficult. However. with technique and some muscles it really works. All the bells I've made don't leak under pressure. I've been flaring tubing for over 20 years and…

The price is worth it, especially if you plan on flicking a lot of pipes.

Rebuilding brake/clutch/fuel lines on an old truck and tired of the cheap crappy tools from the local autoparse shop. On inspection - this kit is of high quality - what is more - as the photos on Revain show. It's heavy, chrome steel, and comes with *two* 3/16" flare sockets. The collar is designed to be quickly slipped over a pipe clamp - rather than being laid on its side. This is however a little bonus if you are working with a large number of torches - you will be happy to cut the included…

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Big and Bulky
