At the 4th Annual HVACR Training Symposium, Bert catches up with Andrew Greaves from NAVAC, who demonstrates the use of NAVAC's new NTB7L Power Tubing Bender. Andrew gives an overview of the tool and uses it to bend some copper tubing. He also shows some other NAVAC products.
NAVAC's NTB7L Power Tubing Bender is a cordless tool, just like the battery-operated flaring tool and tubing expander. These compact, highly portable tools make it easy for technicians to shape copper tubing in the field. The NTB7L can consistently bend 7/8" tubing and get about 100 bends out of a single battery charge.
The NTB7L comes with one T-bar that works for tubing anywhere from 1/4" to 7/8"; different sizes can be achieved with adjustable guides. When it's time to back the tubing out of the tool, the plate rises and pops the tubing out for easy use. The finished product is wrinkle-free and can be deburred, flared, or swaged immediately after being bent. There is also a reverse bending attachment, which comes in handy when making an inside bend isn't practical in the field, especially if the tubing is in a tight area.
