How to use a Flaring Tool - Double Flare

How to use a Flaring tool to double flare brake lines and gas lines.

Thanks dude. The manual didn't mention that last 1/2 turn with the flaring cone.
Thank God for You Tube mechanics

Great vid, thanks for posting.  I just tonight bought a Craftsman flaring kit, Rigid cutter with reamer, and a bender of some make (I skimped there but a friend uses that one).  I plan to use poly armour tubing to replace the entire fuel line on my 1972 Chevy truck.  I am very excited as I have never done anything like this before.  :-)

Honestly a great tool at the end of the day. Despite what people say about not using a screwdriver for extra leverage on the wing nuts, it is necessary or the tube will just get pushed through to the bottom.

Thanks. That’s a whole lot better than what I was trying to do. Thanks

Wow you made that way way easier then my shop manual did. Thanks

You should always de-burr the tubing both before and after making the flair. Also don't forget to put the nut on before flaring.

Good video! If you only need to use the tool once, save $25 and rent it from somewhere like Autozone as I ended up doing. Instructions were gone, but this video was straight forward enough for me to make two flares on a transmission line.

i do this but they always come out sideways? what am i doing wrong

Is that a craftsman tool? I just bought one feom pep boys but the yoke was drilled and threaded crooked so its just garbage and is going back to the store. But I looked up the crafstmab one and it look like yours.

This is the shittiest kit I have every used ever! I have been in tech school for 3 semesters and not once did a tool/kit make me so pissed due to the fucking simplicity of it not working
