Refrigerant Hose Kit with Drier and Pressure Switch

Hoses; drier; and the switch that saves the compressor. Most A/C jobs die at the plumbing. You have a unit under the dash and a condenser in front of the radiator and nothing correct in between - wrong hose size; the wrong fitting angle; a drier hanging off a hose clamp. This kit is the whole middle of the system. Eight feet of #6 liquid; four feet of #8 discharge; five feet of #10 suction; plus eight feet of 5/8 heater hose. Straight and 90 degree fittings in black with O-ring connections and crimp ferrules; two of them with R134a charge ports already built in. The large capacity receiver/drier comes with its switch port and a wide circle clamp to mount it. The hi/low safety switch is what makes this version worth the difference - it cuts out at 28 lbs when the system goes low and at 380 lbs when it over-pressures. That is the difference between a slow leak and a new compressor. Grommets; clamps; tie wraps; O-rings and fitting lube are all in the box. Build the system once and build it right.

  • The whole middle of the system - liquid; discharge and suction hose plus every fitting angle in one box.
  • Pressure protection - the hi/low switch cuts out at 28 lbs and at 380 lbs so a low charge does not cost you a compressor.
  • Charge ports built in - two 90 degree fittings arrive with R134a service ports already on them.
  • Large capacity drier - 6 inch x 2.5 inch with the switch port and a proper circle clamp to hang it.
  • Barrier hose - built for R134a so the refrigerant stays in the system instead of migrating through the wall.
  • Firewall grommets - air tight and flexible; the detail that keeps heat and noise out of the cab.
