Description

  • The Supco Bullet Piercing Valve is an industry-standard mechanical line-tap component masterfully engineered to establish an immediate, leak-free 1/4-inch SAE access port on sealed commercial and residential cooling systems.
  • Precision-machined from a heavy-duty zinc alloy casting, this patented tap valve clamps securely over 1/4", 5/16", or 3/8" outside diameter copper tubing lines using three socket-head Allen bolts that resist torsional slippage during high-vibration runtime loops.
  • The advanced internal architecture features a hardened carbon steel piercing needle paired with dual synthetic elastomer O-rings that deliver 50 times more active sealing surface than standard composite gaskets to permanently stop dangerous refrigerant leaks.
  • Perfect for HVAC/R field service technicians and facility supervisors executing system recovery or diagnostic pressure checks, the BPV31 turnkey kit includes all necessary sizing inserts and a hex key wrench to rapidly complete tap installations without requiring specialized line-cutting or brazing setups.
