Orion Motor Tech R134a Self Sealing Can Tap, Self-Sealing Can Opener for R134a Refrigerant Self-Sealing Cans, with Tank Adapter for 1/4" and 1/2" AC Charging Hoses for Refilling Automotive AC System

I purchased this in conjunction with a popular R12 refill / gauge and puncture type can fitting setup to use with a self sealing can of R134a to refill a fridge that was low on charge. I also purchased one of those blue screw on adapters, thinking that if that one worked, I would return this one unused. Well, come to find out, blue screw on didnt work, and everyone is complaining that the sealing washer in it is too thick, and some even cut the washer by 1/2 thickness or more before it worked. I returned the blue piece of non-working plastic, and attached this valve to the hose fitting for the can, screwed the can onto this one, and lo and behold it worked fine! You do have to figure out what depth to turn the plunger down to though ,too far and it restricts freon, and too little and it doesn't open the seal on the can, but it's a much more confidence inspiring device than the plastic adapter, and works perfectly, IMO.

Bought additionally to the gauge set since it only came with the can piercer, this worked perfect for the self sealing cans

Nice tool and it works. Just feels a little flimsy to me.

Excellent. Great seller

Haven't used it yet but appears to be exactly what I needed!

Works for attachment on gauges. Good to have if your a DIY

WE ARE SATISFIED

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Needed new valve for a/c manifold set

Great product

Tres bon service et adapté bien au canette ac

It does the job perfectly. Worth the money

Poor quality sealing ring inside. Bits crumbled and got caught in the refrigerant can causing it to be unable to reseal. Also some must have got into the threads of the tap as it became difficult to turn

This is a good tap that fits RedTek refrigerant cans from Canadian Tire!
