37 degree flairing tool

[Ken Patton]

I need to get a 37 degree flairing tool, just wondering who bought what make and from where. Thanks in advance for your input.

This is a very good tool....... https://www.aircraftspruce.com/catal...ringtools2.php .....try to find it used.

Thats the same tool I use, I highly recommend it.

And who is using something different? This is also what I have, but would be willing to pay more for something "better". I can see a lot of potential improvements in the rolo-flair, and might be willing to pay for them, but I haven't seen the alternative. (not willing to type a book to describe)

I think this is a case of "good enough" for our use case, until you intend to do thousands of flares for tens of thousands of dollars?

I bought the ridgid 37* tool off Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and am very happy with it. Excellent quality/finish/fit etc. Don't know if I'll ever need it for stainless, but I've got it if so.

The Papco Rotomaster #600 is what I use. It’s a very capable flaring tool that will make perfect double or single flares. They pop up on eBay occasionally.

I have the ridged sitting on a shelf if you want to borrow it.

I used the mastercool hydraulic double flare tool. Works great…

I have the rolo-flare from spruce as well. Works.

Same here - the flares they make are very nice. It's expensive, but worth it in my opinion.
