YELLOW JACKET
YELLOW JACKET is a brand of HVAC and refrigeration service tools and equipment, manufactured by Ritchie Engineering Company, Inc., based in Bloomington, Minnesota, USA. The brand has been in operation since the 1940s and is recognized globally for its range of analog manifolds, charging hoses, vacuum pumps, and related accessories used in the installation, maintenance, and repair of refrigeration and air conditioning systems. 3G Electric supplies a selection of YELLOW JACKET products, including analog manifold gauge sets, quick couplers, valve core removers, cylinder valve adapters, vacuum pumps, and ancillary items such as necklamps. These products are designed for use with common refrigerants including R-32, R-22, and R-410A, and are built to meet industry standards for pressure ratings and leak integrity. The analog manifolds feature SAE or 45° SAE hose connection types, with gauge diameters of 3 1/8 inches, and are available in configurations with two or four valves, with or without sight glasses and gauge boots. The Titan series manifold gauge set (MPN 49977) is a four-valve, four-hose kit designed for R-22/R-410A applications, incorporating a sight glass for visual refrigerant state indication. Vacuum pumps, such as the 7 cfm, two-stage model (MPN 93600), achieve an ultimate vacuum of 25 microns and are compatible with A2L refrigerants, operating on 120V AC with a 5-15P plug. Quick couplers and adapters are constructed from brass and feature various connection sizes and angles, including 180° and straight configurations, with female quick-connect and NPT threads. Valve core removers are also brass-bodied, with 5/16-inch female SAE right-hand threads, designed for charging applications. The necklamp (MPN 10990) provides 200 lumens maximum brightness with two light outputs, powered by two AA batteries. 3G Electric stocks these YELLOW JACKET items for global distribution, supporting plant engineers, maintenance managers, and procurement specialists who require reliable, field-proven tools for HVAC and refrigeration service tasks. The product line emphasizes functional specifications such as connection types, material composition, and performance metrics, without marketing embellishments.
