Description
Built for tradies who want clean, repeatable readings, the AccuTools S10767 keeps the flow path open on 1/4″ SAE service ports. Fewer leak points, steadier readings, and quicker vacs — fair dinkum handy when you’re racing the weather.
Key Features & Benefits
- 1/4″ × 1/4″ SAE fittings → plugs straight into standard service ports and hoses; no mucking about with odd adapters.
- Core-depressing design → opens the flow path so your pressure and micron readings stabilise faster.
- Improves measurement accuracy → reduces restriction at the port for more reliable gauge data and fewer re-visits.
- Helps cut connection leaks → less fighting with couplers means less strain on tools and seals onsite.
- Durable brass build → compact and trade-tough for daily use.
- Drop-in workflow → fits the 1/4″ gear you already carry — no special tools required.
Why This Product Matters
Up on a roof in 40-degree heat, the last thing you want is a dancing gauge because the port’s half-choked. This depressor keeps the path open so micron and pressure readings settle quickly — a ripper time saver. Pair it with a proper core removal tool when you need max conductance during evacuation.

Pro Tip
Cap Schrader valves after service to prevent leaks. It’s not just good practice — it’s aligned with Australian guidance. See AIRAH’s Refrigerant Handling Code of Practice for details. No worries.

Compatibility & System Info
- Ports: 1/4″ SAE service ports & hoses (common on legacy R22/R134a and various AC/R equipment).
- Mini-split note: Many R32/R410A mini-splits use 5/16″ ports — grab the AccuTools S10903 5/16F × 1/4M for those jobs.
- Works alongside: Use a core removal tool for maximum flow during evacuation, e.g. AccuTools S10735 Core Removal Tool (1/4″), and high-flow hoses like the TruBlu Starter Evacuation Kit.
Local site note: On humid Brisbane afternoons or gusty Sydney rooftops, keeping ports sealed and flow paths open is the difference between a tidy first-time pull-down and a call-back. She’ll be right when it’s set up properly.

FAQs
Do I still need a core removal tool for evacuation?
If you want maximum flow for deep, fast vacuums, yes — remove the core with a core removal tool such as S10735, then verify with a micron gauge.
I’m servicing a mini-split with 5/16″ ports — will this fit?
Many mini-splits use 5/16″. Use the S10903 5/16F × 1/4M depressor on those systems.
Any compliance tips for Schrader valves?
Cap valves after service to prevent leaks; it’s recommended in Australian guidance. See AIRAH’s Refrigerant Handling Code of Practice.
What should I pair with this for accurate vac readings?
A solid micron gauge — consider the BluVac+ Pro Wireless to prove dryness and tightness, and follow our vacuum pump setup guide.
