About this configuration
Type B joins the liquid and vapor lines inside one insulated jacket, so the pair feeds through a wall penetration or conduit as a single run. It is the standard set for mini-split installations, and the twinned construction keeps the two lines together and correctly spaced through the pull.
Supplied in 1/2 in insulation, black or white, with plain or flared ends, in lengths to 164 ft.
