The Yellow Jacket 30460 Yellow PLUS II A2L Charging Hose is designed for use with the A2L refrigerants of R-32 and R-454B which have now adopted left-handed connections for their tanks. Due to these refrigerants being slightly flammable, left-handed connections were implemented to differentiate them from the non-flammable A1 refrigerants. The 30460 incorporates a left-handed connection so that service technicians can safely charge A2L refrigeration systems.

The 30460 features a 45 degree ball valve configuration with a quarter inch left-handed to quarter inch right-handed connection. The double ring on the tightening knurl for left-handed connections allows for service technicians to easily identify that this hose is compatible with A2L refrigeration systems while out in the field. The moisture barrier provides an improved resistance to moisture migration which could contaminate expensive refrigerants. The nylon permeation barrier meets the J2196 SAE requirements for CFC, HCFC, and HFC refrigerants and the hose assembly is SA9737 UL recognized.
