This kit connects an R134a refrigerant can to a refrigerator or an automotive A/C system for recharging. It works with both domestic refrigeration and automotive R134a systems. The can tap is compatible with puncture-type and self-sealing R134a cans.
One end of the hose has an R134a puncture tap that connects directly to a puncture-type can. The other end has a 1/4 SAE female fitting that connects to the system's male fitting. The color gauge has Fahrenheit and R134a scale readings.
To use a self-sealing can, attach the self-sealing adapter, which has an RH thread. Remove the adapter to use a puncture-type can. The BPV-31 bullet piercing tap valve is made of metal for durability and corrosion resistance. It can serve as a replacement part.
