Goodman B1796632 Seal and Nut (3/8 in.)

The B1796632 is a genuine Goodman/Amana 3/8-inch seal and nut assembly used to create a leak-tight refrigerant or fitting connection on the AEPT030-00C-1 air handler. The matched seal and nut work together to compress against the mating surface, preventing refrigerant loss at the joint. Even a slow leak at this connection can drain a system's charge over a season, leading to weak cooling and compressor strain.

Specifications

Size: 3/8 inch
Includes: Seal and matching nut
Fits: AEPT030-00C-1 air handler
Brand fit: Goodman, Amana
Part number: B1796632

OEM vs. Generic

This OEM seal-and-nut kit is machined to the exact thread pitch and seal durometer Goodman specifies, so it torques down to a reliable seal without over-tightening. Hardware-store substitutes may share the nominal 3/8-inch size but differ in thread or seal material, risking weeping joints. OEM is the safe choice for a sealed refrigerant or pressurized connection.

Installation Difficulty

Easy to Moderate. The fitting itself swaps in minutes with the proper wrenches, but any joint on the sealed refrigerant circuit must be opened and recharged by an EPA-certified technician.
