Double Inverted Brake Tube Flare
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. Swing
compression disc over gauge and center tapered flaring screw in recess of disc. Screw in until plug gauge has seated on jaws of flaring tool. This
action has started to invert the extended end of the tubing. Remove gauge and continue to screw down until tool is firmly seated in tubing. Remove
tubing from flaring tool and inspect seat. Refer to tube routing diagrams for proper brake tube routing and clip locations. Replace any damaged
tube routing clips.
