3/8" Heavy Charging Vacuum Hose

Yellow Jacket 15660 – 3/8" x 60" Heavy-Duty Charging and Vacuum Hose

The Yellow Jacket 15660 combination hose is built for high-capacity refrigerant charging and deep vacuum service in HVAC and refrigeration systems. With a large 3/8" internal diameter and durable construction, this 60-inch hose supports rapid evacuation and fluid transfer without sacrificing reliability under pressure.

Designed for compatibility with standard refrigeration equipment, the hose is suitable for use with most refrigerants, including R-410A. It is constructed to maintain flexibility in extreme temperatures and incorporates crimped brass fittings for long service life in demanding job site conditions.

Performance Features

• High Flow Rate: 3/8" internal diameter provides faster evacuation and charging than standard 1/4" hoses
• Rated for Demanding Conditions: 600 psi working pressure and 3000 psi minimum burst pressure
• Temperature Range: Operates from -22°F to 176°F (-30°C to 80°C), allowing year-round use in varied climates
• Heavy-Duty Jacket: Reinforced for wear resistance and flexibility in both high and low temperatures
• Crimped Brass Ends: Secure fittings designed to reduce leakage and increase durability

Application Notes

This hose is optimized for use with vacuum pumps, recovery machines, and manifold sets requiring high flow. Larger diameter lines are especially beneficial when evacuating large systems or when pulling down to low micron levels is critical. Hose ends are compatible with standard 3/8" SAE fittings.

Contractor Considerations

For commercial and residential HVACR applications, the Yellow Jacket 15660 is suited for field technicians who require a heavy-duty hose that performs reliably under high refrigerant loads and in extreme conditions. Regular inspection and proper storage will extend hose service life and maintain system integrity during use.
