Flaring tools

Hopefully attached will be some pics of a complete flaring tool AGS772. There are a full set of collets, as well as the tommy bars.

This tool has just gone out to the US, so is not available. Although I do have a couple of other AGS772 in various states.

Also attached is a scan from AP1464 which is the Engineering (Aircraft) General and Technical Information and covers all sorts of wonderful subjects.

AP1464D Vol1 Pt2 Sec3 Pipelines

Hope the information is of use.

AGS772 & AGS773 Flaring tools

As it’s a bit to cool to go out to the garage to get an AGS772 to take some pictures so I’ve posted a couple of extracts from AP1464 and a Brown Brothers book.

From memory the flare angle is 32 degrees, so the 37 degree AN type (that LAS stock) and 45 degree auto type tools are not much use.

Flaring stainless with the AGS type tools is fun too, lots of tube preparation is needed or the cone expander will end up being scored. Tungum also needs care or the flare will crack (not like Kunifer on car brake pipes!).

I have come across a few AGS772 (the smaller one) and 2 AGS773 (the larger one) on my travels over the years, but they are always in short supply and in demand too.

Hope that helps.

Regards

Dave

Not for British pipe flares, either of them.

I bought mine on eBay, but it took many years to find them.
