Spin Tools

Spin Tools is an HVAC tool manufacturer headquartered in Hutto, Texas, with over 22 years in HVAC products. Spin Tools created the SPIN Flare and Swage technology using friction-generated heat to expand copper tubing in a single rotation, producing a flare in approximately 3 seconds versus 3 minutes with traditional ratchet tools. Available through wholesale HVAC distributors including SupplyHouse.

Why Contractors Specify Spin Tools

SPIN tools produce a flare in approximately 3 seconds versus 3 minutes for traditional ratchet tools, and friction heat preserves copper malleability to reduce cracked or fatigued flares. Sets cover 1/4 through 7/8 inch OD for complete residential HVAC refrigerant line flaring.

How to Choose a Spin Tools Product

Select by copper tube OD size. HVAC sets cover 1/4 through 7/8 inch for refrigerant lines; plumbing sets cover water supply sizes. Use in a standard variable-speed drill to generate the friction heat needed for the forming process.
