Inverted Flare
•Typical Application
Hydraulic brake, power steering, fuel lines and trans-
mission cooler lines, LP and natural gas.
•Working Pressure Ranges
Temperature and type of tubing used are important
factors. However, the following table is a good guide
for proper selection. Temperature 730F with copper
tubing:
•Vibration
Excellent resistance.
•Temperature Range
-650F to +2500F (-530C to +1210C) range at
maximum operating pressures.
•Material
CA360 Brass.
•Used With
Copper, brass, aluminum and steel hydraulic
tubing that can be flared.
•Advantages
Very low cost and reusable. Seats and threads are
internal and protected. Compact, excellent vibration
life. Short nut affords very close tube bends. Steel or
brass tube nut.
• Tolerance
+/- .03 on all dimensions. Dimension data can change
without notice. Please call us when dimensions are
critical
•Conformance
Meets specifications and standards of ASA, ASME,
SAE and MS (Military Standards).
•Assembly Instructions
1- Cut tubing to desired length. Make sure all burrs are
removed and the ends are cut square.
2- Slide nut on tube. Threaded end “A” of nut must
face out.
3- Flare end of tube with a 450 flaring tool.
a- Measure flare diameter.
b- Examine flare for excessive thin out.
c- On thin wall, welded or brazed tubing, use
double flare to prevent pinch-off and cracked flares.
4- Lubricate threads and assemble to fitting body. Nut
should be turned hand tight.
5- Tighten assembly with wrench until a solid feeling
is encountered. From that point, apply a one-sixth
turn.
Note: Do not over-torque as it may damage the fitting
or split the tubing at the flare.
