Tradie Pro Tip: Maximising Your Flares

Tradie Pro Tip: Always ensure the copper tubing is deburred both internally and externally before flaring. A clean, smooth edge is crucial for creating a perfect, crack-free flare and preventing leaks. A quick pass with a pipe reamer or deburring tool can save hours of troubleshooting later. Use a drop of refrigeration oil on the cone to reduce friction and achieve a smoother, more uniform flare.

Pair Your Flaring Tool With: Complete Your HVAC Toolkit

Maximize your efficiency and ensure a complete toolkit. Consider pairing your Bradley RF100 with:

• Copper Pipe Cutters: Essential for clean, precise cuts before flaring, crucial for optimal results.
• Deburring Tools: Vital for preparing pipe ends to prevent cracking and ensure a perfect seal during flaring.
• Refrigerant Recovery Units: For responsible and compliant handling of refrigerants when working on existing systems.
