The Ridgid no 345 is the best and it is available for under $50 online. If you need the double lap mandrels it will go over your $50 budget. Hopefully you can re-use the ones from the HF flaring tool. I have done numerous brake lines with this tool - all absolutely perfect. Really holds the tubing well.
