BPV31 / TJ90BPV31 Bullet Piercing Valve by PartsBroz - Compatible with Whirlpool Washers - Replaces AP4502525, TJ90BPV31, BPV31D, GPV14, GPV31, GPV38, GPV56, MPV31

A bullet piercing valve comes in handy when you need to charge your refrigerator or A/C unit. It attaches to the copper piping near the compressor and has a self-piercing functionality. It's a more effective option than an O-ring gasket because it offers more sealing area for leak-proof use. The PartsBroz bullet piercing valve is a functional equivalent to part BPV31 and TJ90BPV31.

Installation Tips

For installation, you only need the included hex key wrench. Attach it to the smoothest part of the copper pipe to guarantee a tight seal. Cleaning off the copper pipe with a wire brush or abrasive cloth is helpful too. Before piercing the pipe, put on safety glasses and protective gloves. Not for use with refrigerant 410a.
