Draper 51762-DP Brake Pipe Flaring Kit (7 Piece), Blue

Very good tool. Bought it to make up some pipes for a fiesta tdci and did the job well

This tool worked perfectly fine for me while I was only needing to flare male ends on a few jobs unfortunate I was stopped in my tracks when I needed to flare a female end

Very easy to use. If you do DIY motoring maintenance don’t spend too much - get this instead.

I have this Draper 51762 Pipe Flaring Kit. It arrived with good instructions. I purchased this kit for flaring new fuel pipes to attach to some hoses on a BMW 530i. I also have a more expensive flaring kit for 4.76mm (3/16) brake pipes. Make sure you apply a little oil to the threads and to the flaring tools that come in contact with the pipe. If I were mating two metal surfaces together and the contact between them had to be somewhere near decent or perfect, there is no way I would use this Draper kit or anything similar and then waste my time potentially sorting out leaks by having to remove and re-flare pipes. Despite that, this product happens to be one of the best of the low quality flaring tools for copper and is probably a close equivalent to the Harbor Freight product seen on internet videos. This Draper product is not for cupro nickel. I'm yet to create a decent (trustworthy) single or double flare after several tries using this Draper flaring tool in my hand or when the tool is clamped in a vice. There's too much play and too many reasons for the flaring tools not to line up straight when flaring. It's so time consuming - my reason for giving it three stars because it's fiddly, as opposed to completely useless. And it does state that this tool is for copper (soft metal) pipes. The instructions also state that the user should practice using the tool. Whereas, I created a good, solid brake pipe single and double flare whilst holding the tool in my hand at my first time using a more expensive and higher quality tool kit, which says a lot when it comes to purchasing tools of certain quality and price. No ... you don't what you pay for. You get what the manufacturer or their distributor want to sell you at their price to match their rated quality. There are expensive tools which are over-rated and don't work as well as described. Before flaring: Cupro nickel is better quality and stronger than copper for brake pipes and fuel lines - more resistant to corrosion and breaking from vibration. Steel is higher rated but requires tools of exceptional quality to bend and flare. Depending on your vehicle's fuel lines, a double flare (a strong lip) is required to give the rubber hose extra security from fuel leaks in addition to using a single-ear clamp. Jubilee clamps are not as easy to fit or remove when situated in confined and awkward spaces. This Draper product also made rubbish single flares and rubbish double flares to 6mm and 8mm cupro nickle fuel lines, which were then attached into hoses and then secured with clamps. This was still sufficient to prevent a leak because the hose was also a snug 6mm or 8mm fit respectively over the flared pipe. Once again, this product is not recommended by the manufacturer for using with cupro nickle in any capacity. But it served my purpose and got the job done on the fuel pipes.

Was as discribed fast shipping

Good product. Good value. Insteictikns are not very clear, but lots of YouTube vids to show the pros and cons of this type of equipment.

Takes abit of fiddling to get it right but it works, if I was doing these all the time I'd get a better one but for the occasional line it's bang on. It is alot easier if you have the tool in a vice.

5 stars all the way

esta muy bien por calidad precio

Per le svasature normali non ci sono grossi problemi, anche se ho usato svasatrici economiche che fanno lavori migliori. Quasi impossibile invece eseguire svasature doppie usando le apposite "pastiglie" fornite nel kit. Non si riesce a pressare in asse, spinge sempre storto malgrado il taglio del tubo perfettamente ortogonale. Ne ho effettuato il reso.

Bördelungen werden unsymmetrisch und sind dadurch undicht. Grund: Die Senkungen in den beiden Werkzeughälften wurden nicht exakt gefertigt. Außerdem riss bei diesem Modell eine der beiden Flügelmuttern beim Festziehen ab.

good

Dépanne bien en cas de besoin mais pas de mode d'emploi en français. Ce n'est pas normal. Pour un usage ponctuel.
