Can Tap Valve

Our Can Tap Valve series serves as the core control valve connecting the refrigerant can to the charging line, enabling safe, controlled release of refrigerant from a sealed can into the system through precision mechanical design. All models feature a forged brass valve body. The lineup falls into two main categories: explosion-proof, pressure-resistant valves, with flow paths optimized for specific refrigerants such as R22, R134a, and a universal R22/R134a/R410A version, ensuring precise compatibility and reliable performance under high-pressure conditions; and self-sealing valves, designed for repeated connect/disconnect without gas loss, with select models also featuring self-piercing capability for flexibility depending on the can's sealing type — including a dedicated version engineered specifically for the R1234yf refrigerant can format.

Knob materials vary by model and include engineering plastic, aluminum, and zinc alloy, with select high-pressure models featuring a built-in backflow prevention valve to keep refrigerant from flowing back and contaminating the can or system. Rated for operating pressures up to 170 bar (2466 PSI) and compliant with the SAE J639 international safety standard, this series is an essential accessory for automotive A/C maintenance, residential and commercial refrigeration installation and repair, and refrigerant recovery work in cold chain systems.
