Flaring copper pipe is a process of expanding the end of a copper pipe to create a flared fitting. Flared fittings are used to connect copper pipes to other pipes or fittings, and they are often used in plumbing and refrigeration applications.
There are two main types of flared fittings: single flares and double flares. Single flares are easier to make, but double flares are stronger and more leak-resistant. To make a single flare, you will need a flaring tool and a hammer. To make a double flare, you will need a flaring tool, a hammer, and a flaring block.
