This small-bore copper tube routes liquid refrigerant into the flowrator (fixed-orifice) metering device at the evaporator coil inlet, ensuring correct refrigerant distribution and proper system charge. A cracked, kinked, or corroded inlet tube causes poor cooling, uneven coil feeding, and capacity loss — replacing it with the factory part restores rated performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEM Part Number: B1796630\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart Type: Flowrator \/ metering inlet tube\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEquipment: Air Handler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible Model: ATUF364216AA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Goodman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOEM vs. Generic\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe genuine Goodman tube is sized to the exact inner diameter and bend geometry required for correct refrigerant flow.
