Re: any tips on double flaring

the connections the guy just flared the pipe and tightened them down.

Is the pressure in an AC system that much lower that a single-flare
won't leak?
Probably I use, have flare fittings.

Looking for it to be American made although I am a fan of the rigid 345, which I'm not sure is made here in the US. I'm interested in a deal. Hit me up here or pm me with pics. Thanks

So I messed up the flare on the hardline that feeds the fuel filter, trying to find out the best way to do this. I understand I need a ridgid pipe cutter and a double flare kit, but don't you need the entire hardline to be outside of the car to properly...

Broke all the hard line adding longer brake hoses due to rust. I have never done this job before. I rented the flare tool, and tips ? I read some where that a tubing cutter as the action will "harden" the end and make flaring more difficult ? Any thoughts...

MAKE SURE you have the nut ALREADY....
As for flairing - I usually get roughly 1/8" or less of tube in the vice, then TIGHTEN it down firmly.
The kit should have a tube.
Well you need to cut the end off to get a good cone-shaped flare.
