Tube End Properly Prepared For Flaring
CUTTING TUBING
-
Using Tubing Cutter, Special Tool C-3478-A or equivalent, cut off damaged seat or tubing.
-
Ream out any burrs or rough edges showing on inside of tubing. This will make the ends of tubing square and ensure better seating of flared end
tubing.
CAUTION: Place tube nut on tubing before flaring the tubing.
Inverted Flare And ISO Flare
Inverted Double Wall Flare And ISO Flare Tubing Connections
DOUBLE INVERTED TUBING FLARES
To make a double inverted tubing flare:
-
Open handles of Flaring Tool, Special Tool C-4047 or equivalent. Then rotate jaws of tool until the mating jaws of tubing size are centered
between vertical posts on tool.
-
Slowly close handles with tubing inserted in jaws but do not apply heavy pressure to handle as this will lock tubing in place.
-
Place gauge (Form A) on edge over end of brake tubing. Push tubing through jaws until end of tubing contacts the recessed notch in gauge
matching the tubing size.
-
Squeeze handles of flaring tool and lock tubing in place. Place 3/16 inch plug of gauge (A) down in end of tubing.
