Nice handle and it works well with the sealed R134 cans that are sealed to prevent leakage when you only use part of the can of refrigerant.

They connected directly to my Harbor Freight gauge set. I like that this valve lets you screw the can in without all the leakage.

Please NOTE that there are a couple different types of R134a refrigerant cans. There are the cans that need a piercing type can tap and then there are there cans that are resealable that use the non-piercing type can tap. California (could be in other states as well) has the resealing type of cans. This worked great on the resealable (California) cans. It feels solid in your hand. No more messing around with leaks or struggling to get the refrigerant out. It’s quick, clean, and does exactly what it’s supposed to do. Definitely worth the investment if you’re working with 134A refrigerant. If you need a reliable can tap, this one’s a winner!

I ended up having to replace my old Mastercool puncture can tap that broke. I was using the can tap with the plastic adapter to use resealable cans. Always had to worry about threading the can on too tight and stripping or cracking the plastic adapter. This is a lot better.

I used on a self-sealing can but even when connected to my yellow hose it started leaking as soon as I turned the knob down to depress the can. Also leaked at the valve when hose disconnected. Knob also became very hard to turn after use. Not impressed with Mastercool lately.

There are a number of less expensive depressor-type alternatives to this item. When I was first in the market, there was little info posted to help understand the choices. They all seemed to be in the 10 dollar range.As far as I could tell the 6-8 different choices all seemed/looked the same, and there wasn't much quality feedback to sort out the "new depressor" type taps.My mistake: I purchased the . I discovered that all of these cheaper tools have a depressor that is fixed in position. These types engage the valve inside the can even before you can begin turning the tap into the can's threads. So, now you are hurrying to thread the can, while pressing the tap on to the threads of the soft metal to avoid mis-threading. R134a HFC will go everywhere (be sure you wear appropriate gloves), and you will think you "must be doing it wrong." But you're not- you're just doing it cheap. Items that function like this should not be legal. You will do more damage releasing HFCs with this device than you/we ever caused with the older generation non-sealing type cans.Grossly inadequate premature marketing answer to a home mechanic's needs.Then I found this item: MasterCool's answer.The functional difference is: the MasterCool actually has a adjustable "depressor" that only depresses the inside-the-can release valve when you turn the MastercCool's handle. So, it works much like the older "piercing type" valves. The handle actually functions to control the depressor and the flow of gas.As of this posting, the MasterCool is just under 20 dollars.
