Product Details

This 33096 suction hose assembly combines the accumulator body and hose routing in one assembly, helping restore proper refrigerant flow on the suction side of the system.

The assembly also includes the specified O-ring and switch-port provisions for system integration. This part cross-references Gates 51537 for the same application.
