NAVAC NEF6LM BreakFree® Power Flaring Tool, 3/4 Max OD, w/ Flare Gauge

Faster, High finishing quality, top performance Thank you NAVAC

I own several flare tools, which are all hand tools. Making good flares are the key step on the installation of the mini split heat pumps. Every time I make the flares, I was nervous for making it too big or too small. I actually cut the line set a bit lager so I can cut the pipe and make the flare again just in case. With this tool, I have a confidence that I can make perfect flares every time. It is really a no brainer that this tool is needed for the job. I am so glad that I found this wonderful product. There is some improvement, however, I would like to suggest. First of all, the size of pipe should be labeled in both sides. It has only in one side and many times I had to flip it to read the size. In the picture, I used my labeler to print the pipe size and the clamp and to the slot in the case. I also cut the corner of the case where the power adaptor be located. The power cord is jammed and I was afraid that I may damage the cord. I used my oscillating tool to shave the corner so the cord is passed without getting pinched.

Each flare is consistent and haven’t had a leaky fitting yet

Fast, simple, and as others have stated, precise. You get what you pay for.

I bought this because I install alot of mini split systems and this saves my wrists from the old manual flaring tool. Its expensive but worth the money. I convinced my boss to buy them for everyone at the HVAC company I work for. I really should get commission for this. I even convinced a rival company that they should buy them for there crews

Pre-set depth gauge makes flaring easier plus it saves wear and tear on your wrists. Cant comment on the durability since I havent had for very long but it definitely seems well made.

It works well

Makes a perfect flare. Its A must for Ductless splits but absolutely use nylock before mating flare to fitting.

Bought to make job easier and boy it sure does

Love him
