Flaring And Swaging Tools

Flaring and swaging equipment are used to join copper tubing and gas pipes. For most non-high-pressure applications, single-flare instruments are employed. In high-pressure applications like air conditioning and refrigeration, double-flare tools are used. The end of copper or other thin-walled tubing can be gradually widened with a swaging tool so that one tube can fit inside the other and be connected together.
