Just bought one from Summit Performance. Thank you for the tips on flaring when warm and cold.

[@motoprof1441]

There are two 3/16 dies that go into the press. These would be the dark colored small dies. One is labeled 3/16 DIN, and the other is labeled 3/16 OP1. Make sure the correct one is being used for the type of flare you want. This is an awesome tool. I have four that my students use to learn how to flare brake lines. This is an excellent video sir.

[@CTSCAPER]

Thanks for the tip! I think it is an outstanding tool as well. However, be sure to store it in warm temperatures because the hydraulic fluid doesn't flow if it's cold outside.

Love this cheap tool

What happens if you "go to far" with the pumping?

[@josesaldana9252]

In my experience nothing. It just stops and won't let you pump. 12 year professional mechanic here. 1st and 2nd shop I worked at had top of the line (at the time) hydraulic flaring sets. I hated them because they would grip the line so tightly it would gouge it and you'd have to use a piece of 3M or whoever scrubby pad to get the fitting to the flare. This is a tool I wish I had bought before it was invented. For flaring brake lines this is the better mousetrap and requires damn near zero skill. Add $150 to the price for the optional adapters if you're a professional. When you open it grab a paint pen color code the adapters and dies. I also recommend taking a black sharpie with a wide tip and paint the raised letters surface to make the markings easier to read

Eastwood for the win.

[@CTSCAPER]

They make a nice Brake Flaring Tool!

[@50TBRD]

Instructions don't say add grease to the die?

[@komoru]

It may be the best and it better be because it's also 5x the price of the Titan tool that can do the exact same job for way less money.

[@tonygreen9883]

Still not a patch on the original Sykes Pickvant. Still in regular use after 40 yrs.

[@Alexwaltman850]

I made it @1:03 in to the video before I found the tool online and saw the price.... Yikes. And here I was complaining about how expensive the Eastwood flaring tool was. This thing is 50% more and you'll never convince me it's 50% better.

[@cbrSpeedster1]

Thanks for the review. FYI, the Eastwood flare press is around $289 and has dies for almost every line on the car...

[@sms9106]

That's a great tool but as Chris Rock says " that's a lot of nut$".

[@hayzersolar]

you need to show this on a car. do the work on the line on the car.

[@hayzersolar]

show this on a car you dont have that much room to move

[@chuckb9867]

Just so you know I've had real bad luck with copper nickel brake lines yes they do ride out and turn green the video should show a stainless steel lined being flared is it just as easy should be r o t stainless is best with stainless fittings from classic tube Buffalo New York I wish video was more in-depth

[@CTSCAPER]

What kind of bad luck have you been having?

[@chuckb9867]

The brake lions don't last like stainless lines I've seen them rushed out in 2 years

[@CTSCAPER]

@@chuckb9867 Oooh! That's not cool. The manufacturers say they're a lifetime replacement. I thought the only downside was they turn green after some time.

[@chuckb9867]

@@CTSCAPER probably one person and 50 sales would return them do an experiment with salt water I have a Jeep and a Dodge Cummings truck I was shocked at how short they lasted they were easy to work with but garbage

[@CTSCAPER]

@@chuckb9867 Thanks for the heads up. That's the first negative feedback I've heard about nickel-copper. I'll keep it in mind in the future. For what it's worth, I've been replacing the back lines in my '02 2500 Cummins with stainless pre-made. I used a bit of nickel-copper for the long line until I have time, and ambition, to remove the fuel tank.

[@nitroeze]

Do they make one for 37°?

[@CTSCAPER]

Here is the product listing for the PFT 409 surrauto.com/kits/pft409-2/ . Yes, they do make 37 degree dies.

[@nitroeze]

@@CTSCAPER Great! Thanks!
