Re: [Chrysler300] Quick question

"Single" flare tools are used on copper tubing for low-pressure  fluids.  The 
tubing is simply bent open.  
 
"Double" flare tools are used for steel tubing, and are appropriate (Safer)  
for automotive uses such as brake lines and fuel lines.
 
For automotive use, I'd get the double flare tool.  They are harder to  use, 
but much more reliable.  They actually do a single flare, then you  reposition 
them to fold that flare back onto itself, forming a double thickness  seal 
portion.
 
I do not believe that they can be used on copper tubing because the copper  
work-hardens too much to do the extra fold.
