Why is everyone so against using a 3/8-inch drive on boiler tube expanders?

Honestly, I used a 1/2-inch drive for years because that's what the old guys taught me, but after seeing a guy in Toledo get way more consistent torque and less flare with a 3/8-inch setup on a big economizer job, I had to switch.

Check the crew manifest first thing in the morning. They usually post changes on the board by the break room. If it's not there, call dispatch directly.
