Nofekh (Hebrew: נֹפֶךְ, נופך‎‎) is a communal Israeli settlement in central Israel. Located in the Shephelah, it falls under the jurisdiction of Hevel Modi'in Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 371.

The village was established in 1949 on the land of the depopulated Arab village of Rantiya by immigrants from Morocco. Its name is taken from one of the 12 stones in the Hoshen, the sacred breastplate worn by a Jewish high priest. Nearby Beit Arif was also initially named after one of the stones (Ahlamah) before adopting its current name.
