I am also looking for a pro version. That mastercool one looks ace, but exy!

The $15 to $20 Chinese Flaring Tools are a lot of Crap and designed for KIDS.
If you want to do proper double flaring job you need a PRO SET which can cost up to $500 which has the correct anvils and dies.
Attached is a photo of A Meco Metric Flaring Tool .Part NO,M709 as manufactured by Reg. Harrison P/L Sydney.
I got one which was bought many years ago from a mechanic/deceased estate .Cost was around $50.
If you want to do simple flariing job (and it is only one or two )take your 10mm bundy tubing to a brake specialist and he will charge a small fee if the expense of buying the tool outright is not justified.
