Flex Flare Nut Wrench

[MAD]

I saw these and realized they would have been very handy a few weeks ago for getting at some brake line fittings from a rear proportioning valve. I don't know who else makes them. Just thought I would post it since they seemed useful.

I like that SEARS wrench. I have a set of regular Snap-on flare nut wrenches and can't count how many times they have rounded off bleeder screws. If they're corroded enough, then Snap-on won't help either.

The flex option will come in handy on many jobs that I do -- I'm buying. Thanks for posting.

Should mention that I work mostly on old Brit cars with Girling and Lockheed brake components --
