Product Number: 02727500
Stainless steel brake pipe is significantly more difficult to flare than the standard cupro-nickel, copper, or mild steel pipes used in most automotive applications — the material requires greater forming force and presents a higher risk of cracked or split flares if attempted with standard equipment. The Sykes Pickavant Flaremaster2 Stainless Steel Upgrade (02727500) addresses this problem with a dedicated hydraulic ram power unit and a metal forming compound formulated specifically for stainless steel work.
The upgrade kit replaces the standard hydraulic ram with a stainless-steel-rated unit capable of generating the additional forming force required, allowing the existing Flaremaster2 SAE and DIN punches and dies to be used as normal. The metal forming compound is supplied within the kit and is essential to the process — applied to the pipe before flaring, it allows the stainless steel to form correctly without cracking.
Kit contents include the hydraulic ram power unit rated for stainless steel pipe, the metal forming compound, thrust washers, and full instructions for stainless steel flaring procedure. The instructions should be followed closely, as stainless flaring technique differs from standard pipe flaring.
This upgrade is intended for technicians who already own a Flaremaster2 system and need to extend their capability into stainless steel work — typically encountered in performance, classic restoration, or specialist automotive applications where stainless brake pipe is specified.
The upgrade preserves the on-vehicle, hand-held workflow that defines the Flaremaster system, simply substituting the hydraulic ram for stainless work and reverting to standard for cupro-nickel or steel pipe.
