The dual features let the gasket compensate for minor surface scratches, slight misalignment and common installation imperfections so you get a tight, durable seal without re-machining or complex work. FlareSeal is made to slip over the male flare, clip into place, and work with standard brass flare caps or fittings to form a crush-style seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does FlareSeal stop leaks at a 3\/8\" flare connection?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe multi-ring geometry creates multiple contact points around the flare shoulder, while the coated copper material fills microscopic gaps and prevents refrigerant or gas seepage. It’s engineered to deform predictably under the clamping force of a flare nut or cap, producing a consistent sealing surface even on imperfect flares.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMulti-ring flare face for staged compression and multiple contact lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCoated copper base metal that fills scratches and surface irregularities\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClips onto male flare for quick placement before tightening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWorks with standard brass caps, nuts and Schrader-style fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use FlareSeal on existing leaking fittings or only new installations?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlareSeal was built to be effective in both repair and new-install scenarios. For a leaking joint, simply clip the gasket onto the male flare, re-seat the cap or nut, and torque to specification—often eliminating leaks caused by minor damage or misalignment without replacing the tubing or re-flaring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuick retrofit for existing leaks—no re-machining required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with common HVAC components like filter driers and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUseful for Schrader valve leaks when paired with the compatible brass cap\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSaves time on service calls by avoiding full system disassembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat fittings and systems is the 3\/8\" FlareSeal FS06 compatible with?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe FS06 3\/8\" size is sized for standard SAE 45° flare connections found across refrigeration and HVAC equipment.
