Description

VC1GE Fieldpiece Valve Core Removal Tool with 1x Ball valve. Vacuum rated to 20 microns. 1/4" Swappable service port fitting to 5/16". A2L Compatible. With Sight Glass & free spinning Comfort Cap

The VC1GE is the upgraded version of the VC1 — everything that makes the compact VCRT great, plus an integrated sight glass and both 1/4" and 5/16" fittings included in the box so you only need one tool for every job.

The integrated sight glass lets you verify the valve core has been captured before closing the ball valve and removing the plunger assembly — no guessing, no costly mistakes, no refrigerant loss from a valve core you thought you had but didn't. The capture rod reliably engages the valve core the first time, every time — a gasket secures the valve core pin so there's no fishing around for lost cores. 

Swappable port fittings between 1/4" and 5/16" mean you only need one VCRT on every job — standard service ports and mini-split systems covered with a single tool. The comfort spinner — a free-spinning, rubberised magnetic cap — lets you apply linear force with one hand while rotating with the other, making removal and insertion against system pressure significantly easier.

A2L compatible, vacuum-rated to 20 microns, and rated to 800 psi working pressure.
