YELLOW JACKET 60278 Deluxe 45 Degree Flaring Tool for 1/8 to 3/4 OD

Works good on mini split ac

Easy to use and produces great flares.

Its a good tool but came in no package and the wingnut was missing from it.

Difficult to hold the tubing in at the correct depth when clamping tube in place

So, I was referred this because many vrv guys who install the units recommend it. I cant say I like it. The reason is its not the easiest to use. I imagine if I use it more that it will be easier. The main reason I dont like it is because theres no clutch to stop you. Had to redo flares a few times. Id rather just use the black max. Its just easier to use and has a clutch. Im going to pawn this thing.

Makes flaring AC lines so much easier.

Makes good flares but a little awkward to use until you get the hang of it . Make sure you secure cooper tight otherwise when flaring the end will push or slip out

I got a leak on my newly installed mini split low line though. It must have been because a hard to reach wall connection with no proper wrenches. I pulled it apart, put some Nylog sealer and end of the story. Im glad I spent the extra money for the pleasure of getting it done right minus the hassle. I thought it had a clutch though and never heard the disconnection click when reaching max pressure. But like I said, it did the job very well and Ill have it for my next two mini splits to install at home.

Excelente

Perfect flare every time.
