what a wonderful channel! This is the only one that breaks it down into steps and shows what it looks like. I borrowed my grandsons flaring tool and made my first double flare justs for the fun of it!
Good info! What I learned is - Single flare usually used for low pressure connections. Double flare for most domestic car high pressure applications such as brakes. Bubble flare are common on European brake lines.
I didn't realize that the double flare was a double step to fold over that lip certainly not written in the tool kit no wonder I had so much trouble geez !! Off I got practice thanks big guy!!
Nice video. I was hoping to see a thought on single flare with AN fittings. They have a sleeve to support the flare. Seems popular in motorsports. What do you think about the single flare in that application?
Depends on the Pressure but more than likely a single flare would probably work, but to play it safe if in doubt use a double. That said I used to do single flares on my brakes when I was a kid because I didn't know any better, and they held. but Double if any doubt.
Great demonstration! I'm looking to buy a flaring tool to fix broken water heater pilot manifolds. Which degree( 37° - 45°) flare would you recommend ?
Thanks man.. Made more sense than any other videos I seen!
Brake line sprung a leak overnight so turned to YT. This is by far the best how-to, and why, double flare vid. Many thanks.
Glad it helped

I don't know much about motor sports, but it really just comes down to pressure..
Should I use a double flare for gas connections?
Depends on the Pressure but more than likely a single flare would probably work, but to play it safe if in doubt use a double. That said I used to do single flares on my brakes when I was a kid because I didn't know any better, and they held. but Double if any doubt.
Awesome 👍
Thanks 🤗
Thanks bud
No problem 👍
I didnt know different slots are there
