Automotive Product Lines and Uses

Using the correct automotive flare tools for the job is essential for maintenance, repair and parts production for vehicles. Tube-flare leaks usually occur due to improper tooling, improper manual flaring of tubing or due to improper installations. Hard-lines, usually fluid-line tubing, are critical to fuel and braking systems in most vehicles; also, these are frequently used in disc-brake conversions, carburetors and intakes. Hose lines (flexible lines, rubber lines) are generally vacuum lines. Fuel lines and brake lines are generally made of combinations of materials, steel-braided or woven. Tapered pipefittings are generally machine-tooled and male and female ends screw together. There is always a chance of the threads not mating perfectly.

Automotive tubing lines are flared at 37˚ or 45˚ frequently, and can be difficult to flare properly without the correct tools. Flared automotive tubing can be categorized generally as:

• Hard-line Single Flare – generally this should be a stainless steel, although stainless steel tubing is not really “seamless” even though it is usually marketed as such
• Hard-line Double Flare – double flare at the end double back on itself with the outside surface being the sealing to prevent splitting at the seam; this is production line/manufactured tubing in most cases
• Other flares include “AN” flares (originally, Army/Navy) available in 45˚, 90˚, Bango fittings; and more complex “O-Ring” fittings and difficult crimps
