What is the difference between flare and Flareless fittings?
The type of fitting you use depends largely on how tight your seal must be. When any level of leakage is an issue (gas and high-pressure lines, for example), use flare fittings. When slight levels of leakage won’t cause too much of a problem (water and compressed air lines, for example), use flareless fittings.
