DESCRIPTION

A copper flaring tool kit is only as good as the flares it produces, and that comes down to the mechanism doing the work. This kit uses an eccentric cone head to form clean, symmetrical 45-degree flares on soft copper tubing, brass, aluminium tubing, and mild steel, which are the right tools for HVAC, refrigeration, and plumbing jobs where a leak-free connection isn't optional.

The 5-in-1 set covers tube sizes from 1/4" through to 3/4" (5/16", 3/8", 1/2" and 5/8" included), so one case handles the sizes most Australian trade jobs actually call for.

Description

Specially designed for HVAC professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike. This comprehensive kit is tailored to facilitate precise and efficient flaring of copper pipes ranging from 1/4 inch to 3/4 inch in diameter. the flaring tool provides stability and control during the flaring process, while the ergonomic design enhances comfort and ease of use.

Features

  • Metric & inch measurement
  • Steel and coated chrome plating material
  • 45-degree single flare
  • The positioning scribing can fix the pipe extension
  • All-in-One Kit:
  • Gantry made of aluminum alloy
  • Roller bearing cutter
  • Trimming knife with hardness 65
  • Engineering-grade plastic box

 

Built for Accuracy, Not Just Flaring

The eccentric cone mechanism is the core of what makes this kit different from a basic yoke-and-bar set. As the cone rotates off-centre through the copper tube, it works the metal gradually rather than forcing it.

This is what prevents splitting and produces a smooth, crack-free flare instead of a jagged one. A good flare needs to be smooth and symmetrical; a cracked or uneven flare won't seal no matter how tight the fitting is.

Key features of this kit:

  • Eccentric cone flaring head, smooth, accurate 45° single flares

  • Large feed screw handle, steady turning with less effort, better control through the flaring process

  • Roller bearing tube cutter, square, clean cuts before flaring or swaging prep

  • Trimming/deburring knife (hardness 65), removes burrs that cause leaks if left in

  • Positioning scribe, fixes and verifies correct pipe extension before you flare

  • Dual clamp blocks, sized in both inch and metric, so you're not converting on site

  • Aluminium alloy gantry, stability under load, less flex during the flare

  • Engineering-grade plastic case, keeps every individual tool organised on the job site

What's Included in the Kit

This is an all-in-one kit, not just a single flaring head:

Everything needed to go from a raw length of tubing to a finished flare is in the one case, no hunting for a separate cutter or deburring tool.

Flaring vs. Swaging: Which Do You Need?

Flaring and swaging solve different problems, and it's worth knowing which this kit is for. Flaring forms a cone-shaped end on the tube so it seats against a flare nut and fitting.

The seal comes from metal-to-metal contact, not thread tape or sealant, which is why getting an accurate flare matters more than how tight you wind the nut. Swaging instead expands one end of a tube so a second length of the same-diameter tube pushes directly into it, creating a push-fit joint without a separate fitting.

This kit is built for flaring. If a job calls for swaged, fitting-free push connections, a dedicated swaging kit or swage head is the right tool for that instead.

HVAC, Refrigeration & Plumbing Applications

This kit is designed around the flares used most on Australian job sites:

  • HVAC and split system installs, R410a line sets rely on accurate 45° flares for a gas-tight connection at every joint

  • Refrigeration work, soft copper flares on coil and pair-tube connections

  • Plumbing, copper and brass tubing joins where thread sealant alone won't hold pressure

Because the same kit flares copper, brass, aluminium tubing, and mild steel, it covers most materials a trade job will throw at it without switching tools.

Frequently Asked Questions

What tube sizes does this flaring tool kit cover?

This kit covers 1/4", 5/16", 3/8", 1/2", 5/8" and 3/4" tubing (6–19mm metric), with a cutter range of 5–32mm, the sizes most residential and light commercial HVAC and plumbing jobs need.

What makes an eccentric cone flaring tool different from a standard flaring tool?

An eccentric cone mechanism works the tube gradually as it rotates off-centre, which prevents the metal from splitting and produces a smooth, symmetrical flare. A good flare should be free from cracks as a split or uneven flare won't seal properly even in a tight fitting.

Why don't flare fittings need thread sealant to stop leaks?

The seal on a flare fitting comes from metal-to-metal contact between the flare and the fitting, not from thread sealant or tape. That's why forming an accurate flare matters more than how the joint is finished off.

What flare angle does this kit produce?

A 45-degree single flare, which is the standard angle for HVAC, refrigeration, and plumbing connections, including R410a line sets.

Do I need to deburr the tube before flaring it?

Yes. Deburring removes the sharp edge left by the tube cutter. Skipping it is one of the most common causes of a leaking flare later on.

What's included in the kit?

The eccentric cone flaring tool body with feed screw handle, two clamp blocks (inch and metric), a roller bearing tube cutter, a deburring/trimming knife, and an engineering-grade carry case.

Is this a flaring tool or a swaging tool?

This kit is built for flaring, forming a cone end that seats against a flare nut and fitting. Swaging is a different process that expands tube to create a push-fit joint without a fitting; a dedicated swaging kit is the right tool for that job instead.

What materials can this kit flare?

Soft copper tubing, brass, aluminium tubing, and mild steel, covering the tube materials most commonly used in HVAC, refrigeration, and plumbing work.

How do I get an accurate flare with this kit?

Slide the flare nut onto the pipe before you start (easy to forget), clamp the tube in the correctly sized block hole, use the positioning scribe to verify the pipe extension is set correctly, then turn the feed screw steadily until the cone forms full contact.
