Each bit sports a 1\/4\" hex shank so you can use a corded or cordless electric drill instead of specialized manual tools. Made from forged carbon steel with a rust-resistant finish, the bits are hardened and precision-machined to hold tolerances and resist wear on frequent jobs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do these bits make pipe joining faster on the job?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstead of hand-operated expanders or bulky press tools, you insert the correctly sized swage or flare bit into a drill and rotate the tube into shape quickly. Swaging enlarges the tube end for straight butt connections while flaring forms a 45° cone for fittings and valves. This reduces setup time and lets you complete multiple connections in minutes with consistent geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes sizes: 1\/4\", 3\/8\", 1\/2\", 5\/8\", 3\/4\", 7\/8\" swages; 1\/4\"–3\/4\" flares\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4\" hex shanks fit most drills—no adapter required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuick rotation-based expansion speeds repetitive tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReplaceable bits let you swap only worn sizes to save cost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill these bits survive heavy daily use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe set is forged from high-density carbon steel and finished to resist corrosion, delivering greater hardness and impact resistance than softer alloys.

Use swages for butt joints and flares for connections to valves, nuts and fittings. Avoid using on hardened steels or stainless where the bit material and design are unsuitable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIdeal for residential and commercial HVAC lines and refrigeration service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWorks with copper, aluminum and brass tubing of listed sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNot recommended for hardened steel or stainless tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeat develops during expansion—allow tubing to cool before handling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWho is this for: Technicians, HVAC installers, refrigeration repair specialists and DIY homeowners who need a compact, drill-powered alternative to manual expanders and flare tools. The kit suits field service work and shop use where speed, portability and the ability to replace single sizes are priorities. If you frequently join soft-metal tubing for air conditioning, refrigeration or water lines and want a durable set that fits standard drills, this LYNCSEDAR combo offers a practical balance of coverage, compatibility and long-term value.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: What drill fits these swaging and flaring bits?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Any corded or cordless electric drill accepting a 1\/4\" hex shank will work, including common quick-change chucks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Can I use this kit on stainless steel tubing?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: No — the bits are made for soft copper, aluminum and brass; hardened or stainless tubing risks bit damage and poor results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Lyncsedar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67591631995065,"sku":"B0FNNFM6ZP","price":62.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0822\/3765\/3177\/files\/lyncsedar-front-kit-layout.jpg?v=1790556605","url":"https:\/\/redleafauto.ca\/products\/lyncsedar-hvac-copper-swage-flare-drill-bit-set-11-piece-carbon-steel-kit-1-4-7-8-hex-shank-rust-resistant","provider":"Redleaf Auto","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
