Brake line flaring tool set ks tools FLAREFIXeco 4.75 mm, 4-piece

Compact 4-piece brake line flaring tool set from ks tools FLAREFIXeco designed to produce precise 4.75 mm flares for automotive hydraulic systems. The set is intended for forming consistent 45° flares on brake and fuel lines, enabling reliable mechanical connections during repair and maintenance tasks in workshops and mobile service environments.

Advantages

The FLAREFIXeco set delivers uniform 45° flares with minimal effort, helping to reduce rework and leaks. Its compact four-piece design is space-efficient and suitable for use in confined work areas. Components are shaped to guide and center the tubing accurately, which enhances repeatability and fitting quality. The set is compatible with common soft metal brake and fuel tubing used in passenger vehicles and light commercial vehicles.

Suitable for

• Forming 45° flares on 4.75 mm brake and fuel tubing
• Workshop maintenance and brake system repairs
• Mobile mechanic and roadside brake-line service
• Preparing tubing ends before fitting connectors and unions

Key specifications

• Flaring diameter: 4.75 mm
• Flaring angle: 45°
• Set composition: 4 pieces designed for flaring operations
• Intended material: soft metal brake and fuel tubing (typical copper, soft steel, or similar malleable alloys)
• Design: compact, workshop-oriented handheld tool set

How to use

Cut the tubing squarely and deburr the inside and outside edges before clamping. Insert the tube into the appropriate die and position the flaring cone or mandrel according to the tool’s instructions. Apply steady pressure or tighten the clamping arrangement to form a clean 45° flare, then release and inspect the flare for uniformity and correct seating. Repeat the operation for each tubing end, and test-fit the fitting to verify leak-free engagement prior to reassembling the hydraulic circuit.

Recommendations

Use the tool on clean, undamaged tubing and avoid excessive force to prevent cracking or thinning of the tube wall. Always deburr after cutting, check flare geometry against the fitting, and perform a pressure test of the hydraulic system after reassembly. Store the set in a dry place to avoid corrosion and maintain dimensional accuracy.
