This assembly creates a leak-tight refrigerant connection at the 3\/8\" flare or coupling fitting, pairing a precision-molded seal with its matching nut. Worn, hardened, or improperly torqued seals are a common source of slow refrigerant leaks — replacing both the seal and nut together restores a reliable, factory-spec joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEM Part Number: B1796632\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible Model: ADPF18241BA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitting Size: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes: Seal and matching nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Goodman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEquipment: Air Conditioner \/ Evaporator Coil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOEM vs. Generic\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGenuine Goodman seals are made from refrigerant-compatible elastomer rated for the system's operating pressures and POE\/mineral oils. Generic seals may swell, harden, or fail to seat correctly, leading to recurring leaks. The OEM nut guarantees correct thread pitch and torque seating.
