Yellow Jacket 16012 Heavy Duty Refrigerant Hose 12 in

Product Description The YELLOW JACKET 16012 is a 12-inch heavy-duty refrigerant hose built for HVAC technicians who need faster, more reliable system evacuation. Featuring PLUS II barrier technology, this hose significantly reduces refrigerant permeation and minimizes vacuum loss during service procedures. The larger internal diameter accelerates evacuation compared to standard 1/4-inch or 3/8-inch hoses, cutting down total pull-down time on the job. With 5/8-inch x 5/8-inch fittings and a 12-inch working length, it is a direct-use hose for manifold gauge set hookups in commercial and residential refrigeration and air conditioning service work. This hose is suited for HVAC and refrigeration technicians performing system evacuation, refrigerant recovery, and charging on residential and light commercial air conditioning and refrigeration equipment. The larger bore design makes it especially useful when tight evacuation targets must be reached quickly. At 12 inches in length, it is a short-reach hose ideal for close-proximity connections between manifold sets and vacuum pumps or system service ports.
