KlenzMate 29985 Plus II 1/4" HVAC Service Hose 60" — Compact Ball Valve, 800 PSI Working

The KlenzMate 2026 29985 Plus II is a 60-inch (5 ft) 1/4" refrigerant hose with a compact ball valve designed for service work on common HVACR systems.

This hose combines a robust rubber body, brass-alloy fittings and a PTFE-sealed connector to give HVAC technicians a dependable service line for charging, evacuation and pressure testing on a wide range of refrigerants. Built to withstand tough field environments, it meets high working- and burst-pressure requirements while remaining flexible enough for tight service bays.

Which refrigerants and systems is this hose compatible with?

The 29985 Plus II supports many widely used refrigerants and system types, making it a versatile addition to a technician's toolkit. It’s suitable for modern and legacy refrigerants used in residential, commercial and automotive HVACR work.

• Compatible with R410a, R134a, R407C, R502, R12, R22 and similar refrigerants
• Works for refrigeration, air conditioning and some vehicle A/C service applications
• 1/4" female flare to 1/4" female flare thread sizing for common service ports

How strong and durable is the 29985 Plus II under field conditions?

This hose is engineered for heavy use: a minimum burst pressure of 4000 psi and a maximum working pressure of 800 psi provide a wide safety margin for routine service tasks. Its construction and temperature range help it perform reliably in varied climates and demanding jobsite environments.

• Minimum burst pressure: 4000 psi (276 bar); working pressure up to 800 psi (55 bar)
• Operating temperature range: -28.8°C to 82.2°C (-20°F to 180°F)
• Minimum bend radius: 6" (152 mm) to prevent kinks and premature wear

What design features improve safety and ease of use?

The Plus II includes a compact ball valve at the fitting for quick shutoff and control during charging or recovery. Precision-machined brass alloy fittings combined with a PTFE gasket create a reliable seal and reduce leakage risk during connections.

• Compact ball valve for fast isolation and safer hose handling
• Brass-alloy fittings with PTFE gasket ensure a tight, low-leak connection
• Rubber hose body balances flexibility with abrasion resistance

How long is the hose and what service situations is that length best for?

The hose measures 1.52 m (60 inches / 5 ft), giving technicians a practical reach for most service tasks without excess bulk. That length is well suited for rack-mounted equipment, rooftop units and vehicle service where a mid-range reach reduces tangling and storage issues.

• Length: 60" (1.52 m) — mid-length for common service access
• 1/4" female flare ends match many manifold and service tool connections
• Easy to coil and store while remaining long enough for most condensers and compressors

Who is this for: The KlenzMate 2026 29985 Plus II is aimed at HVACR technicians, service contractors and knowledgeable DIYers who need a reliable, general-purpose refrigerant hose. If you perform routine charging, pressure testing, evacuation or recovery on a variety of refrigerant types and want a mid-length hose with a compact shutoff valve and durable fittings, this model provides a balance of safety, flexibility and compatibility for professional field work.
