The 6-point flare nut opening surrounds five sides of the fitting hex, providing more contact and less slip than a standard open-end wrench. Constructed from chrome steel with a corrosion-resistant finish, the wrench measures 5.04 inches in overall length with a straight head and a head thickness of 0.256 inches. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and fuel-line service pros reach for this tool when working on flare connections in tight spaces where a tubing wrench must stay flat and low-profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wrench is suited for residential and light commercial service work involving refrigerant line sets, copper tubing flare connections, brake lines, and similar small-diameter flared fittings. The 1\/4 inch and 5\/16 inch openings cover two of the most common flare fitting sizes encountered in HVAC split-system lineset work and plumbing service. Its straight-head, non-offset design keeps it compatible with inline fitting access where angled wrenches would not seat cleanly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-point flare nut opening grips five sides of the fitting hex to reduce rounding on soft brass flare nuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble-end design provides 1\/4 inch and 5\/16 inch openings in a single tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrome steel construction with corrosion-resistant finish for service in humid or outdoor environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight head with 0-degree offset angle for flat, inline fitting access\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow-profile head thickness of 0.256 inches for access in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 5.04-inch overall length keeps the tool manageable in tight line-set runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose flare nut wrench for 1\/4 inch and 5\/16 inch flare fittings commonly found on refrigerant line sets, copper fuel lines, and hydraulic tubing connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA licensed HVAC technician or plumber should recover any refrigerant and relieve system pressure before loosening flare connections. Always confirm the fitting size before applying the wrench to avoid deforming soft brass flare nuts. Do not use extensions or extra leverage on this wrench, as flare fittings require controlled torque to reseat properly. Follow applicable EPA Section 608 requirements when working on refrigerant circuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWrench Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Open End Flare Nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOpening Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-Point Flare Nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double End\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWrench Sizes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch and 5\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Offset Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.256 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.04 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorrosion-Resistant\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRatcheting\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsulated\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Milwaukee Tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45-96-8300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MILWAUKEE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51697169826098,"sku":"45-96-8300","price":27.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7100a09e94bc19130882a5ce23fde55a.jpg?v=1788350205","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/milwaukee-tool-45-96-8300-flare-nut-wrench-1-4x5-16-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
