The Goodman B1796630 Flowrator Inlet Tube is a genuine OEM refrigerant metering component for the Goodman AEPT060-00A-1 air handler. The flowrator (piston-style metering device) inlet tube feeds liquid refrigerant into the evaporator coil distributor at the correct point, supporting proper refrigerant flow and coil performance. It replaces a kinked, corroded, or leaking factory tube.
The genuine OEM tube is formed to the exact length, bend radius, and fitting size required to mate with the AEPT060 coil and metering device. Generic tubing must be cut and bent to fit, introducing leak risk and flow restriction. The OEM part solders in cleanly with factory geometry.
Advanced — this is a sealed-system repair requiring EPA 608 certification. Recover refrigerant, braze the new tube into the coil distributor, pressure-test, evacuate, and recharge. Should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician only.
