-
High-Flow 3/8″ SAE Flare: Larger orifice size reduces restriction, allowing technicians to reach deep vacuums faster and charge large systems efficiently.
-
Extended 4-Inch Copper Stem: The long dehydrated copper tail acts as a heat buffer, protecting the internal valve seat and seals from damage during high-heat brazing.
-
Premium Brass Construction: Forged brass body provides superior thread strength and corrosion resistance in harsh industrial environments.
-
Heavy-Duty Sealing Cap: Comes with a knurled brass cap equipped with an internal gasket to ensure a leak-proof secondary seal.
-
Schrader Valve Core Included: Features a high-pressure spring-loaded core designed for reliable operation across wide temperature ranges.
Applications:
-
Commercial Refrigeration: Ideal for cold rooms, walk-in freezers, and industrial chillers.
-
Large Split Systems: Used as a high-side or low-side access port on 5HP+ air conditioning units.
-
System Evacuation: Perfect for dedicated vacuum ports to speed up the dehydration process on large-volume systems.

Market Insight: For large-scale projects in Apapa or Ikeja Industrial Estate, time is money. Elins Nigeria stocks these 3/8″ valves to help commercial technicians complete vacuuming and charging tasks in half the time it takes with standard 1/4″ fittings.
Technical Warning: Due to the larger mass of the 3/8″ copper stem, it requires significant heat to braze.
Elins Nigeria Advice: You MUST remove the valve core before brazing. We recommend using a wet rag or heat-sink paste around the brass head to prevent the higher brazing temperatures from warping the flare threads.
Warning: Ensure your manifold hoses have a 3/8″ connector or use a 3/8″ to 1/4″ adapter to connect standard gauges.
