The Industry’s first Quick Flaring Tool
Quick Accurate Flaring Every Time
**Product is discontinued.**
A welcome departure from creating flares manually, the NEF6Li Cordless Power Flare yields accurate, hassle-free flares in a fraction of the time compared to traditional flaring methods. Equipped with a high-performance, large-capacity rechargeable lithium battery, NAVAC’s new automatic flaring solution makes flaring faster and far simpler without sacrificing accuracy or consistency. Designed to perform reliably in harsh environments, the NEF6Li Cordless Power Flare also offers variable speed control and quick-connect functionality. It comes in a sturdy blow-molded case with four tube holders, six commonly-sized flare dies, two batteries, a charger, a premium tubing cutter and a deburring tool. Traditional, manual flaring tools are largely dependent on the individual installer’s expertise, a factor that can lead to inconsistent, often damaged flares. In addition, conventional flaring blocks are cumbersome and require assembly and disassembly. By comparison, the NAVAC Cordless Flaring Tool is far easier to use, with positioning and securing the tube taking mere seconds. From there, all the operator does is press the button to make a flare – also a matter of seconds.

Flaring Tool Use & Benefits
In both plumbing and HVAC applications, soldering is the most common method of securing joints and connections for copper tubing. In many situations, though, a flared connection can be the best alternative – particularly in situations where the application of heat/flame could be problematic, or when the ability to easily disconnect/reconnect is important (thanks to threaded nuts). Flared connections are strong and can withstand substantial pressure without leaking.
With the wrong tools, they can also be time-consuming to create and prone to issues such as poor seals or damaged connections – particularly if the tools are in the hands of a somewhat inexperienced technician. Traditional flaring tools are kits that consist of a “flare form”/block with various sizes, and a flared cone attached to a yoke. The technician would attach the yoke to the copper tubing and slowly apply increasing pressure to the tube, reshaping the metal until it conforms to the flare form. The nut then slides over the flare and threads into its counterpart, clamping down on the flared metal to establish a perfect seal.
Cordless flaring tools: faster & more precise
While there is a place for the charm of old-fashioned tools and methods, the job site isn’t that place. On a job site, a technician’s ability to perform tasks efficiently and precisely is essential – and that capability is what NAVAC’s cordless flaring tools provide. The tool connects to tubing within seconds, and the variable speed motor spins the flared cone into the tubing and produces a perfectly shaped result within a few more seconds – literally at the touch of a button. The machine’s precision eliminates human error and inconsistencies, ensuring reliable fittings that make the perfect connection on the first attempt, reducing everything from material waste to the technician’s fatigue. The use of cordless flaring tools dramatically increases productivity in the field, delivering instant return on investment.
Lithium Batteries: delivering long-lasting power
NAVAC’s cordless flaring tools use highly powerful, reliable lithium batteries to help ensure that the tool packs plenty of durable power to handle the job without the need to recharge. Lithim rechargeable batteries have higher energy density than traditional Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) rechargeable batteries – and their lighter weight and more compact nature makes for a more user-friendly tool. Though more expensive to produce than alternatives, lithium batteries offer the best performance – delivering up to double the energy in a charge. They also have a lower discharge rate than other battery technologies, so if a battery happens to sit unused for a long period of time, it can still be used without requiring an immediate recharge. They’re even more environmentally friendly. The unparalleled power and stamina delivered by our lithium batteries ensure that your state-of-the-art cordless flaring tool is always ready to answer the call.
