Description
Imperial flaring and swaging tools are precision-engineered devices used primarily in HVAC/R, automotive, and plumbing industries to join tubing without the need for additional fittings. The most recognized model is the Imperial 275-FS, a versatile 2-in-1 tool designed for creating 45° flares and swages on soft copper, aluminum, and brass tubing.
Key Features
- Dual Functionality: Quickly converts between a flaring tool (to create a funnel-shaped end for flare fittings) and a swaging tool (to expand a tube’s diameter so another tube of the same size can be inserted and soldered).
- Size Range: Typically covers 9 flaring sizes from 1/8″ to 3/4″ O.D. and includes 5 swaging adapters for 7 sizes: 3/16″ to 3/4″ O.D..
- Durable Construction: Features a self-centering, slip-on forged steel yoke and interchangeable swaging adapters made of hardened, chrome-finished steel for smooth operation.
- Design: Utilizes a screw-type feed, making it ideal for use in tight or close-quarter workspaces where traditional larger tools might not fit.
Components & Kit Options
Most professional kits, like the Imperial 275-FSC, are bundled with essential accessories:
- 275-FS Tool: The main flaring/swaging unit.
- TC-1000 Tube Cutter: For precision cutting of tubing from 1/8″ to 1-1/8″ O.D..
- Flaring Bars: Two bars provided to cover the full range of tube sizes.
- Hard Carrying Case: To protect and organize the adapters and yoke.
