Description
These Universal Refrigerant Can Tap Valves are specialized dispensing tools designed to safely puncture, seal, and meter refrigerant from small disposable service cans. Built to handle mobile automotive repairs, domestic appliance servicing, and light commercial maintenance, each valve features a hardened internal pin that cleanly pierces the top seal without gas loss. Equipped with standard 1/4″ SAE male flare side ports, these valves connect directly to universal manifold charging hoses. Select from three specialized design variations to match your specific refrigerant can style and thread type.
