Flaring And Swaging Tools

Imperial flaring tools are used for creating a fabricated mechanical joint for sealing or joining copper, brass and aluminium tubings. These tools feature a hardened-steel, chrome-finished flaring cone to form better flares with less manual effort and reduce the additional need for deburring. They come in a compact design with a slip-on self-centring yoke to allow applications in close quarters. Choose from a wide range of these Imperial flaring tools, available in a tube size range of 3/16 - 5/8 inch (O.D.), on Raptor Supplies.

Ridgid flaring tools connect tubes to each other or other fittings using a flare connection. Manual flare tools have hardened cones for producing 45 deg flares (in copper, brass or aluminium). They feature a single clamp screw for easy clamping & removal of the tube. Precision ratcheting flare tools have a ratcheting handle for providing easy access in confined areas.

Yellow Jacket flaring tools are designed for connecting refrigerant tubes & gas pipes using pressure to make a strong mechanical joint for positive sealing. These steel tools feature a cushioned handle for comfortable grip and a multi-faceted burnishing cone providing 45 degree flare at one lap for producing a smooth rolling action without galling or marring the copper or aluminium tubing. They have an integral height stop (automatic height gauge) to meet the correct tubing height requirements. Model 60295 comes with a built-in clutch release for preventing over-torquing. Choose from a wide range of these pipe flaring tools, available in O.D. range of 3/16 - 3/4 inches on Raptor Supplies.

Yellow Jacket swaging tools are suitable for expanding the end of one tube to insert another tube and create a permanent brazed connection. These units are made of heat-treated alloy steel with a punch design for swaging the inside diameters of copper tubing and fabricating with tubes of the same diameter, thereby eliminating the need for fittings. Selected models are available in sets of 4 pieces for swaging copper tubing with 1/4, 3/8, 1/2 and 5/8 inch outside diameters, on Raptor Supplies.

Imperial flaring and cutting kits are designed to connect gas pipes and copper tubings in both high and medium pressure applications. These kits contain a 45-degree flaring and swaging tool, a tool cutter and double flaring adapters to accommodate 1/8, 3/16, 1/4, 5/16, 3/8, 7/16, 1/2, 5/8 and 3/4 inch OD tubings. They further come in a plastic tool case for easy & convenient storage.
