If you have ever experienced brake problems with your car, then you know how vital a role they play. Your brakes are designed to stop your car when you need them. Which is makes a good flare tool for brake lines so useful. This way you can save on both your pocket and time making car repairs easier.
A few flares here to save you some cash. This allows you to fix or replace only the part of a brake line that had failed, rather than having to change out the whole length. It is a lot less expensive to replace only that damaged area! This can also save on your time as you will be able to fix it by yourself in the comfort of your home. You will not have to wait for a technician or have repairmen come and replacement your line. That directly translates to getting your vehicle driving sooner!
Brake line material — The flaring tool you choose should work with the same brake line material as what your using. Steel, copper and aluminum are the more usual materials used for brake lines. Always double check your tool and material are compatible.
Brake line size: Check that the tool can be used with the brake line size you are dealing. They are available in sizes for either 3/16 inch, 1/4 inch or and sometimes even the larger size of a 5/16 which is common on later model vehicles. Before you start reviewing the tools requirements.
Uneven flare: This issue happens when the thickness on one side of the flare is not equal to that of another. This is avoidable by ensuring the brake line by which you are flaring has been clamped down tightly upon before being fully opened up.
Inside-Out Flare: Imagine if you made the flare backwards so that the bottom part is on top. To avoid this indirect mistake, always be sure that the tubing is pressed entirely up against the hand of your tool when you start to flare.
Cracks and leaks: Occasionally the material used in brake lines can be compromised during flaring, which may result in cracks or leaking. This problem is very easily avoidable, just always use the deburring tool to make sure there are no sharp edges that need smoothed out prior to flaring.
