Got mine today and it works amazing. I took a few scrap pieces and every one looked the same and looked like a factory job. I needed the 1/4 inch one, but after seeing how it works I will be ordering the 3/16 one as well. Last year (01 Alero) I tried the other types and it was extremely hard to keep the die square on the tube causing a bulge on one side and eventually broke the cheap die. It was an exercise in frustration that ended up with compression fittings just to get to my mechanic. This year I got a 90 C1500 that needs a rear brake line and I will be doing it myself thanks to this. If you were like me and tried the cheap ones and had a bad experience and are leery of spending the money... do it. You wont be disappointed.

Got my 1/4" version yesterday. Tried it on a regular steel line and it worked perfect. I could NEVER get anything but a single flare with the cheap style. And that was on the softer copper alloy line. The cheap ones just pushed the steel ones back out of the die. It's your life, spend a little more and get the real thing. I ordered mine at Oreillys auto parts online.

Any type of forcing screw tool benefits greatly if you lube the threads! I'd add a bit of grease to the threads . Secondly, Dremell makes a pointy cone shaped bit that works perfectly for deburring the inside of a 3/16 line! I keep one in every brake tool I own! My next hydraulic flaring kit will be the Mastercool set!

I've used the Draper brand version of this tool to flare both steel and copper lines, and they all worked perfectly. The first one I tried was literally the very first flare I'd ever made, to repair an OEM steel line that had sheared off when I tried to unscrew the tube nut from the rubber brake hose, and it was so easy it was almost silly. If you can't make perfect flares with this every time in steel, cunifer or copper, then either you're not using it properly or you're not prepping the end of the line properly after you cut it.

The one drawback of this tool is that you'll need more than 2 inches of straight line when using it on a vehicle. In many cases a line will snap off at the fitting close to a bend. You need the length of a new fitting plus 2 inches to fit the tool in front of any bend or obstruction. So, while a good tool it's not perfect. Nice demo.

I did 4 bubble flares with this with no issues. But then the line started to slip backwards at flare 5. Just doesn't seem to hold the line tightly. Also the handle cracked from all the force.

[A search of the comments for 'steel' returned nothing. (??) so...] have to confirm: does this work for steel/stainless steel lines? Incidentally, I don't know about the lube, but I suspect a few drops of brake fluid will do the job.

And yes there is high carbon steels and tool steels that are increasingly hard and difficult to machine. But those are not what brake lines are made of.

You should be able to look at the mating surface between the flare and fitting after you snug the fitting down-There will be marks from metal on metal-this will tell what is going on. I can't tell you why your brake hose/cylinder is leaking.

Not all that important in this demo video, but for novices, just starting out, and for a more complete instruction, it could be of major benefit to remind them to put the fittings on the line in the correct orientation BEFORE flaring the ends. More cutting and flaring practice isn't so bad, until the line is too short to fit, that is...Nice job, otherwise

Great tool, but it's only 3/16 & 4.75. The old style has all the familiar sizes in one tool for roughly the same price. Just sayin'. That depth preset is absolute genius, though! They need to do a bar shaped one with all the sizes, that's the ticket!

The whole point is that this particular style of flaring tool is specifically intended for using on the vehicle, so it's got the smallest possible profile to enable it to be used in really tight spots (and the handle can be unscrewed if you need it to work in a VERY tight space) - the tradeoff is that each version of the tool only handles one size of line, because if it handled more, it would have to be physically larger. The bar type tools *might* fit on the vehicle, or they might not, and they also have a reputation for working less reliably unless you spend on a real quality set that will easily cost way more than the Titan type.

I just did a video of making a complete flare in 1 minute kzbin.info/www/bejne/d52Wg2qGntqSfLM -I and my son have made dozens and dozens of d-flares with no real problems. . Lets see if I can help. To trouble shoot your issue (this is more than likely a simple problem) After making a straight cut in the tubing then setting depth what does the bubble flare look like using opt1 side of the die? . Then what does you double flare look like using the other end of the die? . Is your line cracking? Smashing? . Things I ran into was not tightening the clamshell to hold the line tight-not enough lube-not going in order with the bubble/double side of the die. Hope this helps, I am not an auto mechanic-but reluctantly work on cars and this tool (for me) is way way better than the block style flare tools.. lf this doesn't help solve the issue let me know
