Wostore Tubing Flaring Tool Kit - 7 Dies for Eccentric Flares on 3/16-3/4 inch Copper Pipes - Ideal for Refrigeration HVAC Plumping Work

This eccentric flaring tool is an improvement over the older style ones that I'm used to using on auto brake lines. It really worked smoothly and easily on the copper mini split lines that I used it on, and there's been no leakage on those connections since. Beautiful thing.

Used this kit for HVAC line prep and brake tubing. The dies fit snugly and produced clean 45-degree flares without visible leakage. The cone rolls smoothly and doesn’t scratch the tubing. Instructions were clear enough to follow without guesswork, and the clamp held the pipe securely during use. The cutter worked well on soft metal and PVC. The hard case has a clean layout and keeps the tools organized. The metal parts have a matte finish and look well-machined. For the range of sizes and included tools, it’s a good value for occasional or professional use.

Used this to put together a 3 head R32 mini split system, with about 12 separate flares. When set properly, all were perfect. It's pretty simple - use a sharp cutter with very light pressure, debur and make sure to get the filings out, set the height by eye or gauge, and check the diameter with a gauge. To me, this is a single purpose tool - single flare for soft copper tubing for HVAC up to about 600 psi. Not for steel, not for automotive, and way overkill for household plumbing.

Awesome product, perfect flares, easy functionality. The design is pretty straighforward, but the only opportunity I see would be to include a gauge on it to see how far to stick the pipe out to make perfect flare. I had on in the past with a stick out gauge. So it was a learning experience to get them perfect, but you learn quick. I have always done nickel thickness, but that was too much. ended up being lcoser to a dime / credit card. Very well made, durable. Not too bulky or cumbersome. This ones a keeper. Perfect for HVAC.

I used this tool to replace some copper oil lines. The tool worked fine and I made about 20 flares all in all. One improvement would be to have a longer countersink on the side of the tool for centering the flaring device over the tube. In one instance I was not centered and the side pin made its own indent in the side of the tool and resulted in a useless flare (of course, user error, but still there could be an improvement made there). Also, after a dozen or so uses the tool had some wear and would sometimes leave a score mark on the tubing. I think using a harder tube holding material would improve the tool greatly.

My mini-split install was almost ruined by a couple of poor quality factory flares that leaked badly. This flare tool came to the rescue. It was delivered quickly, it was easy to use, and it produced perfect flares that did not leak. Nice case, too! This tool has earned a spot in my toolbox.

Have uses this kit for a while now with no issues. Produces great flares and I did worry about the quality prior to using it. Awesome tool.

Worked very well. R-410 joint didn't leak.

What a fantastic tool at a good price. I purchased this and have used it to create flares for my aircon mini split. The flares it produces are excellent, after a successful nitrogen test and vacuum test with no issues we went live. :-) I rarely recommend a tool here as many are just ok. Buy this for air con flares you will not be disappointed. Good to have a flare gauge to make sure they are the right size. Lubricate the cone with a little air con oil to get a perfect flare. Easy to use, do a little practice first. DO NOT FORGET TO PUT THE NUT ON FIRST :-) AND TORQUE THE CONNECTIONS TO THE MANUFACTURERS SETTINGS.

Works well providing a smooth even flare.

Very useful and high quality tools

Tiene la punta descentrada pero cuando haces la boca la hace bien lo he probado con el tubos de 1/4 y 3/8 y salen bien
