This short metering tube connects the liquid line to the flowrator (piston) metering device that feeds refrigerant into the coil. A kinked, corroded, or damaged inlet tube restricts flow and degrades cooling capacity, so replacing it with the correct OEM tube preserves the system's designed refrigerant flow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flowrator (metering device) inlet tube\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFits:\u003c\/strong\u003e Goodman ARPF30301BA evaporator coil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM Part #:\u003c\/strong\u003e B1796630\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Copper tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFunction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Routes liquid refrigerant to the flowrator piston\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOEM vs. Generic\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOEM tubes are pre-formed to the exact length and bend radius for the coil, ensuring a clean brazed joint and proper alignment.
