Hi

Has anyone seen one of these tools before, i am sure someone on here has, if so can you pass on you knowledge as i am curious to know how it's used and what it's for. I should have put a tape measure on for reference, but it is circa 6" in length.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Roger, thanks for the information, now I have a name for it i can search for more information. Much appreciated.

(Just had a quick search and now discovered this is only one component of the tool, thanks again.)

Frequently used for mending brake pipes. So 'brake pipe flaring' will find the answer.
