The Goodman B1796632 Seal and Nut (3/8 inch) is a genuine OEM sealing kit for the 3/8" refrigerant or fitting connection on the ARUF030-00A-1 air handler. The matched seal and nut create a tight, leak-free joint at the metering/coil connection, preventing refrigerant or condensate seepage that causes capacity loss and callbacks. Whenever a 3/8" fitting is opened for service, the seal should be renewed rather than reused.
This genuine OEM Goodman kit pairs the seal and nut to the precise 3/8" thread pitch and seat profile of the ARUF030 connection. Mismatched generic hardware can cross-thread, under-compress the seal, and leak under pressure. Using the OEM seal and nut guarantees the correct torque seat and a reliable, code-compliant joint.
Easy to moderate. If the fitting is already accessible during service, swapping the seal and torquing the nut takes only a few minutes. When the joint is on the refrigerant side, system recovery and recharge by an EPA-certified technician are required, raising the difficulty. Always verify the connection type before working.
