Questions & Answers
Does this tool work with Nicopp (Cunifer) copper/nickel alloy lines?
People are saying to use lube for the flare. What kind of lube should l use? And do you have to use lube?
Do you not make a 1/4" version? I've looked everywhere online and found nothing. Maybe I'll just buy it and bore it out to 1/4"
Will this work on "Poly Armour" steel lines?
Will this work on the 3/16" copper brake lines?
Will this work on factory Toyota lines? The auto parts store one can't flare the lines. It pushes them out of the vise.
I already own this tool. I ended up stripping the threads on the main guide bolt. Is there a way to order that particular part individually?
will this make a bubble flare
