Earl's Braid Spreader for -3 and -4 Teflon Hose
In order to insert the (olive) into Speed-Flex Hose, the stainless 
protective braid must be separated from the Teflon liner. This can be more difficult than it sounds. Earl's braid spreader solves the problem-and eliminates the tiresome probability of poking holes in your fingers. In use the tool is simply inserted into the cut end of the hose and pushed-spreading the braid. The olive is then placed on the tool mandrel, pushed over the hose liner and under the braid until the liner bottoms against the shoulder of the olive.
The tool mandrel is double ended-one for -3 hose and one for -4. The handle contains a recess for storage of spare olives.

EZ-Beader™ Tubing Beader
Earl's patented new EZ (Roller) BEADER is a fresh approach to an old problem. In order to securely attach rubber water hose to rigid aluminum tubing, the end of the tubing must be beaded. Generations of racing mechanics have used military surplus Parker beading tools to do the job. We probably sold more of them than anyone. Unfortunately production ceased after WWII and the surplus kits have been scarce for over a decade. Compact enough to 
be used on already installed tubing, Earl's EZ-BEADER produces a properly positioned and perfectly radiused bead on aluminum tubing with wall thicknesses from .035" to .065". This is one tool that no serious racing mechanic can afford to be without.
The Nylon braid of Pro-Lite hose is slipperier than a wire braid. To make it easier to hold the socket in its proper position on the hose while the nipple is threaded into it; we have developed a broaching tool for the minor I.D. of the socket. It is very easy to use and will simplify the overall assembly process.
