Pay attention to the number of pieces. Some tools have a hanging hook for storage. The material and grip affect ease of use. Compare the specifications before ordering.

Flaring Tools for Brake Lines
Which size do you need?
A flaring tool creates a secure connection between the brake line and the fitting. The diameter of the brake line determines which insert you need. Common sizes are 4.75 mm and 6.3 mm. Always check the diameter of your brake line before ordering. A wrong insert can cause leaks or a weak connection.
What to look for when ordering
Check if the flaring tool is complete. Some sets include only the tool, others also include jaws and inserts. A complete set is useful if you want to flare multiple sizes. Pay attention to the number of parts. More parts do not always mean better. Choose what fits the work you do.
Extra tools in the set
Some sets also include bending and cutting tools. These allow you to cut and bend the brake line to size. That is practical for a complete brake line repair. Check that the tools are suitable for the same diameters. This avoids buying separate tools.
This flaring tool belongs with the brake special tools for cars. If you are working on the brake line itself, take a look at brake lines and bleeding. For replacing brake pads and pushing back the caliper piston you need disc brakes. And if you are working on the brake shoes or the handbrake, drum brakes is the right match.
