Each cap seals a standard Schrader service valve port to help prevent refrigerant leakage that can cause serious injury or death from exposure to dangerous gases. The red color coding provides immediate visual identification on A2L-designated circuits. Application and removal require a special tool, preventing accidental service access by unqualified personnel. This pack includes 10 caps. Each cap is embossed for additional identification and is threaded at 5\/16 inches to fit standard Schrader valve stems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese caps are intended for use on central A\/C units and mini-split systems charged with A2L refrigerants. A2L refrigerants are mildly flammable and require additional handling precautions compared to legacy refrigerants such as R-22 or R-410A. Proper capping of all Schrader service ports is a critical step in preventing accidental refrigerant mixing, unintended venting, and cross-contamination during service visits. HVAC technicians working on new-construction or retrofit A2L systems will encounter these caps as a required component of compliant service valve management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRed color coding identifies A2L refrigerant circuits at a glance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16 inch thread fits standard Schrader service valve stems on A\/C and mini-split units\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpecial-tool-required design restricts access to qualified service personnel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEmbossed markings provide secondary identification without relying solely on color\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHelps prevent A2L refrigerant leakage, accidental mixing, and unintended venting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a 10-pack for multi-unit service or shop stocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use on standard Schrader service valves with 5\/16 inch thread on central A\/C units and mini-split systems containing A2L refrigerants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation and removal of these caps require the appropriate Novent special tool — do not attempt removal with pliers, open-end wrenches, or other improvised tools, as this can damage the valve stem or cap. Recover or isolate refrigerant per EPA Section 608 requirements before breaking into any refrigerant circuit. HVAC technicians should follow all applicable local codes and A2L handling guidelines when servicing systems charged with mildly flammable refrigerants. Confirm the correct cap color is applied to the correct circuit to maintain accurate visual identification across multiple systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Red\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: A2L refrigerant lines in A\/C and mini-split units\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.00 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.13 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.56 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 021449867023\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: RECTORSEAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 86702\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RECTORSEAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51138735014194,"sku":"86702","price":76.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/305532920.png?v=1778262743","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/rectorseal-86702-novent-a2l-schrader-valve-cap-5-16-in-red-10pk","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
