I have found the Pleides tool to be reliable John and especially useful in tight spaces as you point out, although it does take some practice to get a good flare! Regards, Matthew T.

Hi Matthew
My experience was that you get the occasional badly formed flare even with practice and care in use.
Those failures nearly always seem to be on the last flare you need to couple up when pipe shortening is not an option.
It is always a perfect flare when you find you forgot to thread the pipe nut first.
