YELLOW JACKET 60278 Deluxe 45 Degree Flaring Tool for 1/8" to 3/4" OD

Makes flaring AC lines so much easier.

I got a leak on my newly installed mini split low line though. It must have been because a hard to reach wall connection with no proper wrenches. I pulled it apart, put some Nylog sealer and end of the story. I'm glad I spent the extra money for the pleasure of getting it done right minus the hassle. I thought it had a clutch though and never heard the disconnection click when reaching max pressure. But like I said, it did the job very well and I'll have it for my next two mini splits to install at home.

Prefect I have had one for 25 years with out any problem just time for a new one love it would not have any other kind

Easy to use and produces great flares.

I bought this flare tool to replace a older flare tool ( nothing wrong with it ) . I had a Yellow Jacket flare tool and I think it is one of the best. This new tool is a little different . mine swings open lifting the up die or jaw . This model only lifts the die but doesn’t open up. When I ordered I thought I was buying the exact same mine.Once I opened the package and looked it over i noticed right off the bat that the dies didn’t line up correctly. I went my garage and got two cooper tubings to test it out. I did 3 flares on 1/4 tubing and 3 flares on 1/2 tubing. On all six the flares looked good with a little marking on the outsides of flare but on 3 I could notice the tubing had marks of the misalignment of the dies (or jaws ) that hold the tubing. I need this for work and I can’t afford not to have a flares that are not 100% perfect. If I need to redo a flare is waste a waste of time.The picture shows how the dies or jaws line up together.

Works good on mini split ac

Perfect flare every time.
