340g Refrigerant Can

The Bluefire 340g Refrigerant Can is designed for use in the maintenance of automotive air conditioning as well as in the servicing of commercial refrigeration equipment. The Bluefire can contains a 340g (12 oz) net quantity of refrigerant, the universal standard size for use in the top-up of vehicle AC systems as well as in the recharging of such systems. The aerosol valve is precision threaded with 1/2’-16 ACME or 7/16’-28 UNEF threads to ensure a secure, leak-free connection to service hoses and valve taps. The Bluefire can is manufactured in accordance with DOT and EN417 safety standards, and is 100% water bath tested for air-tightness, subject to burst pressure test, and visually inspected before despatch to ensure zero-leakage safety and maximum cooling performance.

Product Overview

Our Bluefire 340g Refrigerant Can (typically described as 12 oz can in North America) is a heavy duty, professional can designed for use by mobile HVAC technicians, automotive repair shops and DIY automotive repair / maintenance kits. It is a heavy duty steel pressure container of 340 grams that contains elevated internal storage pressures. This allows for a single charge or a controlled dispense of gas, ideal for use on daily servicing work rather than having to transport and handle large industrial cylinders.

Constructed from high-tensile cold-rolled steel and treated with anti-corrosion interior coatings, the Bluefire 340g canister preserves gas purity and prevents chemical breakdown over long shelf-life storage. It accommodates a broad spectrum of modern refrigerants—including R134a, R1234yf, R600a, R290, and eco-friendly hydrocarbon blends. Integrated with robust female threaded aerosol valves, this canister ensures fast, gas-tight hose attachment, steady discharge rates, and total operator safety during field use.

Key Product Features

Industry-Standard 12 oz (340g) Capacity: The can holds the perfect amount of air conditioning refrigerant to complete a single can charge to a vehicle’s air conditioning system. This size is perfect for field service operations that complete a single charge to a time and also reduces unused refrigerant and inventory.

Heavy-Duty Pressure Vessel Construction: Heavy-Duty Pressure Vessel Construction features deep-drawn steel bases and reinforced longitudinal seam welds to withstand high ambient temperatures, road vibration and shipping shocks.

Universal Valve Thread Compatibility: Machined valve threads (1/2′-16 ACME for US automotive tap adapters or 7/16′-28 UNEF for universal HVAC hoses) form an immediate gas-tight seal.

Anti-Corrosion Interior Lining: Special interior barrier lining to prevent corrosion or rust by chemical reaction with liquid refrigerants and with synthetic PAG/POE compressor lubricants.

100% Factory Safety Inspection: The International transport and hazardous material protocols are strictly adhered to. Each unit is tested on automated inline water bath pressure testing as well as optical dimension audits before the packing of the unit.

 

Target Applications

Service for Automotive AC System: These recharging kits are designed for use in passenger cars, trucks and commercial fleet vehicles and contain R134a or R1234yf refrigerant.

Commercial & Domestic Refrigeration: Our mobile refrigerant top-up service for ice machines, commercial display coolers and domestic fridges, using environmentally friendly R600a and R290 refrigerants.

HVAC Field Diagnostic & Flushing: For use in mobile service vans for field pressure diagnostics and system flush in remote job sites.
