Aluminum Tubing for PS - How to form the end?

The tool to do that is called a tubing bead roller.

Not sure this will work with steel tubing.



Here is an example of the tool used to make that type of flare.

I think the best bet is just clamp it on. The steel tube should hold fine with a hose clamp. But if you can rent something like this from somewhere you can make it purdy.

Ha! That’s awesome! I knew there had to be a tool to make that specific bead! Thank you!
