Re: Tips on double flaring brake lines?

A: I had trouble until I read the instructions and saw that you only need to 
have it stick through the dept of the doubler tool's step. After that, I 
haven't had a leak (I also put mine in a vise)

To: mail@xxxxxxxxxxxx

I'm having trouble getting a seal on my double flared
3/16" brake lines. I filed and chamferred inside and
outside of tube etc. Flare looks good, but leaks under
pressure. I did search and saw some of the cheaper
double flaring kits can put flare off center.
Wondering if any list members had success with the
lower end double flaring tool, and how they did it?



Thanks,  Bob.
