Capillary tube for refrigeration

This copper capillary tube measures nine feet in length with a 0.085 inch inner diameter and 0.145 inch outer diameter. It serves as a metering device in refrigeration and air conditioning systems. The tubing is supplied new and ready for installation.

Suitable for technicians servicing compatible

HVAC professionals working on refrigeration or air conditioning equipment that requires this specific capillary size will find the part matches the specification. Buyers who need a different internal diameter, outer diameter or overall length should look at alternative tubing options.

Integrates into the refrigerant circuit

The tube connects within the system piping to regulate refrigerant flow between the high and low pressure sides. Its copper construction allows brazing to compatible fittings and coils.
