Professional Brake Flaring Tool
Just bought the professional brake flaring tool from Eastwood and it works great on double flaring brake lines. I've been needing this for a while and with the sale price of $20 off the usual price I decided to pull the trigger and buy one. If you think you might need a flaring tool in the future buy this tool because it does work good.

Re: Professional Brake Flaring Tool
Looks nice, but it looks like its only good for making lines on the bench. Doesn't look like it will work when repairing lines under the vehicle, since it mounts in a vice.
This is my flare tool preference. It is also capable of doing transmission and push connect fuel lines. https://www.amazon.com/Mastercool-71.../dp/B007TN15EG |

I've got that same kit, it is awesome when I am doing a custom fuel injection install on a customers truck. This kit and various weather head fittings.

Re: Professional Brake Flaring Tool
This tool seems kinda pricey until you do a few flares and then you forget about the cost! I purchased the 37 degree AN dies too.

I've got the same mastercool kit and love it! I've even made power steering pressure lines with it.

Re: Professional Brake Flaring Tool
I have one of these. Its the best flare tool I have owned by far. Flawless easy results. Yes, I dont know how you could use it under a vehicle, but that is of no concern to me.

Re: Professional Brake Flaring Tool
I've used mine under bread trucks, medium duty trucks, some hot rods, and cars. It gets tight but can be done.
