Review on Robinair 10588 R 134A Valve Remover by Matt Venable

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent tool for removing and installing Schraeder valves for R134a systems

The design, finish, knurling and strength of this tool are excellent. It easily removes and replaces Schrader valves in cars and trucks R-134A LOW and HIGH in A/C lines. It is NOT intended for use in systems other than R134a. This is because each automotive air conditioning refrigerant requires a different hose fitting and each access fitting has a different diameter that is unique to that system's refrigerant. In other words, R-12, R-134a and R-1234yf have different sizes of LOW/HIGH fittings and Schrader valves. This is to prevent accidental cross-contamination of refrigerants from the manifold gauge hose connections. Therefore, only purchase this tool if you intend to use it on an R-134a fueled system.

Pros
  • Steel construction withstands high torque loads
Cons
  • Availability of spare parts
