Yellow Jacket 60275 Universal Flaring Tool 5/8 Inch

Product Description

The YELLOW JACKET 60275 is a universal flaring tool designed for HVAC and refrigeration technicians working with copper tubing in the field or in the shop. The tool handles outside-diameter tubing from 3/16 inches to 5/8 inches, covering all common inch and metric sizes in that range. Its multi-faceted cone produces a precise 45-degree flare while burnishing the flare surface simultaneously, reducing the need for a separate finishing step. The flare bar is compact enough for use in confined spaces where full-size flaring equipment cannot reach. The flare is formed above the flare bar, which helps produce a clean, consistent result on each connection.

This tool is suited for residential and light commercial refrigeration and HVAC service work where copper tubing connections require a reliable 45-degree flare. It is appropriate for use when replacing lineset fittings, servicing refrigerant circuits, or completing new equipment installations that call for flared tube connections. Its compact form factor makes it practical for technicians who work in equipment closets, crawlspaces, and other restricted access areas where a standard-size flaring tool would be difficult to maneuver.

Key Features

• Handles tubing from 3/16 inches to 5/8 inches outside diameter in both inch and metric sizes
• Multi-faceted cone rolls a precise 45-degree flare and burnishes the surface in a single operation
• Flare forms above the flare bar for a clean, consistent result
• Compact flare bar design allows use in tight or restricted spaces
• Universal bar design accommodates the full range of common refrigeration tubing sizes

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style universal flaring tool for copper tubing used in residential and commercial HVAC and refrigeration systems requiring 45-degree flared connections.

Installation Notes

This tool is typically used by licensed HVAC technicians and refrigeration mechanics. Always recover refrigerant and depressurize the system before cutting or flaring any tubing in a live refrigerant circuit. Ensure the tubing end is cut square and deburred before inserting it into the flare bar to avoid a cracked or uneven flare. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer torque specifications when tightening flare fittings after forming.
