Sea-Dog Drain Tube Flaring Tool, 1 Inch, Stainless Steel/Zinc Plated Steel - 520290-1

The Sea-Dog Drain Tube Flaring Tool (520290-1) is a purpose-built hand tool for installing 1 inch drain tubes on boats. It is used to flare the end of a drain tube so it seats and seals properly in motor wells, livewells, baitwells, and other bulkhead drain applications. The tool works with all Sea-Dog Drain Tubes in the 520210-520430 range, making it a handy, compact addition to any boat toolbox or rigging kit.

Constructed of stainless steel and zinc plated steel for corrosion resistance in a marine environment, this flaring tool is sized specifically for 1 inch diameter drain tube installations. A companion tool (520295-1, a separate part number) is sized for 1-1/4 inch tubes, so it is important to select the 520290-1 for 1 inch tube work. Note that the drain tube itself is not included with this tool.
