C&D Valve

C&D Valve is a manufacturer of HVAC/R valves, fittings, service ports, and tools for refrigeration and air conditioning service applications. C&D Valve has manufactured HVAC/R components in the United States since 1967, designing and producing all products in-house at the company's facility in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. C&D Valve products include brass service ports, adapters, couplers, formed tube assemblies, machined brass components, and a complete line of HVAC/R service tools marketed under the TekEdge brand. C&D Valve is now part of the Aspen Pumps Group, a global manufacturer of air conditioning and refrigeration aftermarket products. HVAC/R technicians and service contractors specify C&D Valve products where domestically manufactured brass fittings, service valves, and application-specific HVAC/R tools are required for refrigeration system service and repair.

C&D Valve Product Lines

Service Ports and Schraeder Valve Cores

C&D Valve service ports and valve cores are manufactured in Oklahoma City from brass machined to tight tolerances for leak-free refrigerant service connections. Service ports from C&D Valve are available in configurations matching the standard 1/4" and 5/16" SAE flare and Schraeder port sizes used on residential and commercial HVAC/R equipment. Schraeder valve cores from C&D are available in standard and high-flow configurations to match service port flow requirements for refrigerant charging and recovery. Where a service port or valve core fails or is damaged during service, C&D Valve replacement components provide a direct, domestically manufactured replacement.

Adapters, Couplers, and Fittings

C&D Valve brass adapters, couplers, and fittings cover the connection transitions required in refrigerant service work, including flare-to-flare, flare-to-NPT, and Schraeder-to-flare configurations. Formed tube assemblies from C&D Valve provide pre-fabricated copper and brass tubing transitions for refrigeration system service and repair applications where custom-bent field tubing would be required. Machined brass components from C&D include ball valves, check valves, and manual shut-off valves in configurations specific to HVAC/R refrigerant circuit applications. All C&D Valve fittings and adapters are designed and manufactured in-house at the Oklahoma City facility.

TekEdge HVAC/R Service Tools

TekEdge is C&D Valve's HVAC/R service tool brand, producing instruments and tools designed for refrigerant system service and maintenance. TekEdge tools address the application-specific needs of HVAC/R technicians, covering the service port access, valve core removal, and refrigerant circuit service steps that are part of routine HVAC/R maintenance. TekEdge tools are designed and manufactured in-house at the C&D Valve Oklahoma City facility, applying the same machining capabilities used for the brass fittings and valve component line. Where the C&D Valve brand covers fittings and valve components, TekEdge covers the tools required to install and service them in the field.

Why Contractors Specify C&D Valve

HVAC/R technicians specify C&D Valve products because the company has designed and manufactured its entire product line in-house in Oklahoma City since 1967, providing consistent quality control across the service port, fitting, and tool product families. Domestic manufacturing in Oklahoma City means the complete product design and production process remains in-house without reliance on overseas suppliers for critical service component quality. C&D Valve is now part of the Aspen Pumps Group, giving the brand access to a global distribution network while maintaining its U.S. manufacturing base. The TekEdge tool line extends C&D Valve's HVAC/R coverage from replacement components into the service tools required to perform refrigerant system service work. C&D Valve products are available through SupplyHouse for HVAC/R service and supply applications.

How to Choose a C&D Valve Product

The primary selection variable for a C&D Valve product is application: valve/fitting or service tool. For refrigerant service port components, service ports, and Schraeder valve cores, select from the C&D Valve branded product line. For HVAC/R service tools including valve core removal tools and service port accessories, select from the TekEdge branded product line.

For service port and adapter selection, match the C&D Valve product to the port size and connection type at the installation point. Standard residential HVAC/R service ports use 1/4" or 5/16" SAE flare connections; confirm the port size on the equipment being serviced before ordering. For Schraeder valve core replacement, select the standard or high-flow core based on the flow requirement of the refrigerant circuit.

For tube assembly and fitting selection, identify the transition required between the service connection and the refrigerant circuit: flare-to-flare, flare-to-NPT, or Schraeder-to-flare. Match the C&D Valve adapter or formed tube assembly configuration to the connection types at both ends of the transition point.
