Capillary tube for HVAC systems
This copper capillary tube serves as a metering device in refrigeration and air conditioning equipment. The 11 ft length provides sufficient material for fabrication or replacement tasks in professional service work. It is intended for technicians who build or repair sealed systems requiring precise refrigerant flow control.
Consistent flow under steady pressure
The fixed internal diameter of .054 in maintains a stable restriction when the system reaches normal operating pressures. Copper construction resists the vibration and temperature cycling found in condensing units and evaporator coils. Performance remains predictable as long as the refrigerant charge and heat load stay within the design envelope of the circuit.
.054 in internal diameter
This single dimension determines the mass-flow rate for a given refrigerant and pressure drop. Selecting tubing with a different bore will alter superheat and capacity, so the .054 in ID must match the original equipment specification. Installers who need a different restriction must choose another tube size.

Questions about this item
How much noise or heat does the .054 ID copper capillary tube generate when it runs all day?
The tube is a passive copper component with no moving parts, so it produces no noise and negligible heat during continuous operation.
What fittings or tools must I already own to install the .054 ID x .106 OD capillary tube?
You will need flare or compression fittings sized for .054 in. ID and .106 in. OD tubing, plus a tubing cutter and deburring tool for clean ends.
Will the 11 ft copper capillary tube connect directly to the .054 ID ports on my existing TXV and evaporator?
Yes, the tube’s .054 in. inside diameter matches those ports, so it can be joined with correctly sized flare or compression fittings.
