Vise-Mount Tube Flarers for 37° Flares


	Style A	Style B

Create flares in metal tubing so it’s compatible with flared tube fittings. 37° flares are used in high-pressure applications. These tools consist of a flaring head and a tube holder. Type M hard copper and stainless steel should be annealed before flaring.

Hand-Held Tube Flarers for 45° Flares


Style A	Style B	Style C

Style D	Style E

Form 45° flares in aluminum, brass, or copper tubing so it’s compatible with flared tube fittings often used in low-pressure plumbing, air conditioning, and refrigeration systems. All of these tools have a flaring head and a tube holder that firmly grips your tube.

Style B—For consistent flares, style B have a depth gauge to properly position your tube.

Style C—A one-hand clamping mechanism on style C makes working on overhead jobs easier.

Style E—To increase installation speed and minimize hand fatigue, style E have an adapter that connects to cordless screwdrivers to turn these manual tools into power tools. An automatic depth stop positions your tube for precise, repeatable flares. A one-hand clamping mechanism makes working on overhead jobs easier.

Vise-Mount Tube Flarers for 37° and 45° Flares

Mount these flarers in a vise and create single and double 37° and 45° flares. Use 37° flares in high-pressure applications and 45° flares in low-pressure applications. Double flares roll the end of tubing in on itself then flare both layers for applications such as brake lines. Type M hard copper should be annealed before flaring.

Vise-Mount Tube Flarers and Reamers for 37° Flares

Ream and flare both soft and hard metal tubing so it’s compatible with flared tube fittings. 37° flares are used in high-pressure applications. This tool consists of a flaring head and a tube holder. Type M hard copper should be annealed before flaring.

Hammer-Driven Tube Flarers for 45° Flares

Tube Holder

Tap this tool with a hammer to quickly form 45° flared ends in copper tubing. These flarers work faster than standard hand-held tube flarers but are less precise. A 45° flare forms a tight seal with a flared tube fitting and nut for low-pressure applications.

Vise Tube Holders—For additional stability, clamp tubing in a bench vise tube holder.
