NAVAC NH5SC 1/4" Charging Hose Set with Ball Valve — 5 Ft (Red, Yellow, Blue)
The NAVAC NH5SC is a professional-grade set of three 5-foot refrigerant charging hoses with integrated ball valves, built for HVAC and refrigeration technicians who need fast, leak-free connections during charging, evacuation, and recovery. Each color-coded hose (red, yellow, and blue) uses 1/4" SAE fittings and is rated for an 800 PSI working pressure with a 4,000 PSI burst rating, making it compatible with R-410A, R-134a, R-22, and other common refrigerants.
Is the NH5SC the Right Hose Set for Your Service Work?
The NH5SC is a universal 1/4" charging hose set suited to the majority of residential and light-commercial HVAC/R service jobs. With standard 1/4" SAE connections on both ends and a 45° bend on one end, it connects directly to most manifold gauge sets, service ports, vacuum pumps, and recovery equipment.
The ball valve on each hose lets you isolate the line and shut off flow at the hose end, which reduces refrigerant loss and venting every time you disconnect. That makes this set a strong choice for technicians who prioritize refrigerant conservation, cleaner disconnects, and compliance with responsible refrigerant-handling practices.
Ideal for: HVAC installers and service technicians charging, evacuating, or recovering refrigerant on split systems, heat pumps, and light-commercial equipment using R-410A, R-134a, R-22, and similar refrigerants.
Completing your kit? Pair these hoses with a NAVAC N2A4B Analog Manifold Gauge Set or the NAVAC NX1V Nexus Digital Manifold, and add a NAVAC NP7DP2 7 CFM Vacuum Pump for a complete evacuation setup.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in the NAVAC NH5SC hose set?
The NH5SC includes three 5-foot charging hoses — one red, one yellow, and one blue — each fitted with an integrated ball valve and 1/4" SAE connections.
Which refrigerants are the NH5SC hoses compatible with?
These hoses are suitable for R-410A, R-134a, R-22, and other common refrigerants. Always confirm the pressure rating is appropriate for your specific refrigerant and equipment before use.
What are the pressure ratings on the NH5SC?
Each hose carries an 800 PSI working pressure rating and a 4,000 PSI burst pressure rating.
What size are the hose connections?
Both ends use standard 1/4" SAE fittings (1/4" – 1/4"), with a 45° bend on one end to make service-port connections easier in tight spaces.
How does the ball valve reduce refrigerant loss?
The ball valve lets you shut off flow right at the hose end before disconnecting, so refrigerant trapped in the line isn't vented each time you remove the hose.
Is the NH5SC the ball-valve version of the hose set?
Yes. The NH5SC is the set with ball valves. NAVAC's NH5S is the equivalent three-hose set without ball valves.
