- A short video showing the easy to use tool that’s great for flaring brake pipes in-situ on the vehicle or on the bench.

Brilliant tool and video thanks.
Well done, nice clear video!!!!!
Very useful. Thank you
Very well explained, the best video! NOW I'm ready to get under my car. Greetings from Finland!
Thanks a lot for taking the time to show the single flare. I was wondering if this tool was capable of making it.
the results were just as good as my super expensive Sykes flaring tool
I have this tool and it always works in the toughest of pipes and you can put flares on in the tightest of spaces if you need to join to an existing pipe. Always scape back any protective coating from existing pipe or it can just slip.
Can this tool be used to join two pipes, mating a single flare to a double flare, using a male and female fitting, or do you have to use a dedicated inline fitting?
Brilliant. Thanks very much 👍
This is one of the best and clearest instruction on YT without BS ..well done and great vid! Cheers
what is better cooper or stell pipes, why cars dont bring cooper from factory?
@@robertokandalonly reason i can think of is copper is cheaper and better (softer) to bend.
Neat tool and a good clear video, thanks.
I just bought a flaring tool from Amazon. It does 3/16 and 1/4". The OP1 is pointed at the pointed end not the cupped end. This is wrong according to your video. I guess they marked the dies wrong?
Okay good job, 👍 Now make similar type but with 1/16" top ripple for ( 0) ring to slide on it
Hi i see the tools do a different type 1 is SAE AND THE OTHER IS din.
What is the difference?
Thanks pal, very clear and concise. I wonder what the “stop blank” was for 😮. I’ll sort the leaking pipe tomorrow… thanks again bro 👍😉🏴
That first operation does not create a single flare... That is a Bubble Flare.. putting the Op2 die in first would form a Single Flare.
That is not a bubble flare or single flare. It's just the first stage for a double flare. The first operation is not used in any brake system it just looks similar to a ISO bubble flare.
I believe it IS a DIN/ISO Bubble Flare as used on many many many vehicles brake systems around the world (and used on my Volvo 240) which is how I know as I am currently rebuilding the front brakes ;-). @@fuckjewtube69
Bloody good video, I just bought the same tool, no instructions!
Wondering what the single and double flares do?
A lot easier than I thought, thanks for the vid' mate .
Copper should NEVER be used for brake lines. Copper can not hold the pressures that can occur in a braking system.
Copper nickel is okay 👍
Thanks for helping me do mine!
ola. Qual é o diâmetro desse tubo em milímetros?
Complimenti! Il video non poteva essere fatto migliore di così, curato nei minimi particolari, ancora complimenti!!
What am I doing wrong? The is coming uneven.
very good video thank you
Excellent demonstration thank you 🙏 👍🏽
Brilliant,thanks.
Well explained 💯
Excellent vid thank you
Thank you for you help
Here in Norway you can find all that stuff except from that straightening tool which nobody seems to carry.
Nice and clear no BS
Aonde encontrar esta máquina boa noite.
Can it flaring steel brake line ? What brand thank
I have been told that the first stage is a bubble flare, is that correct?
Yup - just another name.
@@CarBuilderSolutions wrong... A Single Flare is completely different from a Bubble Flare. Using the Op2 Die first would create a Single Flare
@@WApnj I am sure this one is a double flare. A single flare is the simple one that opens up like a.....trumpet horn, as an example. The double flare is more involved and is first bubbled and then flared as a trumpet ie the flare folds up on the inside.
@@WApnj agree... a single flare is completely different..... that first stage he created is an SAE bubble flare, second stage is an inverted double flare...
I'm assuming it's the same operation to make DIN metric single flares but with the metric tool??
Yes there also is a metric version
Muito bom esse vídeo a onde eu acho essa ferramenta pra comprar??
enjoyed the video,never done this before, i have to splice in a brake pipe,but will op 1 join op2 as a joint?,thanks mark.
Its not really the right way to do it. You should have a solid connector with a OP2 flare and female tube nut on each side.
عاشت ايدك احسنت
So much easier and better flares than the Sealey kit.
Is the grease really necessary? Will it not partially block or obstruct the pipe? Or will any grease flush out when you bleed the brakes?
Thanks and good easy video 👍🏻
The Sealey dies are awful...had them changed twice by the company. I was told to get a Franklin brake pipe flare tool ....looks the same as what you used . Is that a Franklin or generic brand? Thanks
The grease will simply help create nice smooth flares and will prolong the life of the dies. You need red rubber grease which is safe to use on brake systems and hydraulics etc. Just wipe off any excess (maybe don't use as much as in the video) I use a small amount around the inner face of the die tha makes contact with the copper pipe.
Do not use wheel bearing grease it will contaminatethe brake fluid and cause the seals to swell up use rubber grease
I used red rubber grease as advised by Frentech and I bought a different brake pipe flaring tool that goes in the bench vice which is like the Eastwood Company one ....so much better and absolutely perfect flares BUT one thing most people don't think of is the quality of brake pipe itself. I was getting dreadful flares hence why I bought the bench vice flare tool which helped but didn't resolve the issue then I bought new cupro nickel pipe from my local automart and solved the issue completely! I used the eBay pipe again and got the same terrible flares so always get your brake pipe from a reputable source!@@PeterShaw-lb9lt
this is great
Looks more well made than the ones you get here in America
lol we have the same ones in america hahha amazon man
Will it do factory steel brake lines?
Yes, these tools also work on steel lines.
NEVER use Copper for Brakelines. Stress corrosion sudden Fracture will result.
Definitely Not suitable for brake pipe
It's not copper it's a copper nickel pacifically made for brake lines
@@DR.N2STY OK then.
titan its crap... doesnt work
It's not "pipe" or "Piping", it is TUBING. Brake TUBING is NEVER copper !!STEEL!!
Copper nickel is used for brake lines, not 100% copper.
My car's full of copper pipes/ tubes..
Copper tubing (not nickel-copper, but straight copper) is perfectly legal in most countries of the world, including the UK where I live. For some reason, the USA doesn't allow it.
У нас в России (СССР) , раньше на всех машинах, включая грузовики, медные стояли, а потом по видимому в целях экономии, стали переходить на сталь.
You should never use copper for brake lines. Any educated technician will tell you that.
So the whole of the world is wrong !!!!
"Educated technician" Jesus wept
@@r10000mips The hell are you talking about? Copper is NEVER used for automotive brake tubing. STEEL
@@fourfortyroadrunner6701 what?... every European car uses copper nickel or Kunifer brake lines....granted not 100% copper ..but it's certainly not steel...
@@fourfortyroadrunner6701 my 40 year old classic has lots of copper pipes
i HAVE A QUESTION REGARDING CONE SHAPE END. iS IT UP TO EN STANDARDS
