Description

When you’re working through those long hot days and your cab AC starts acting up – blowing warm air one minute and barely cooling the next – there’s a good chance your expansion valve is the culprit. Inconsistent cooling, evaporator icing, or poor A/C performance often trace back to a faulty expansion valve. This replacement valve gets your air conditioning back to doing what it should: keeping you comfortable when the temperature climbs.

What You’re Getting

Block valve design with flange mounting for secure installation and reliable operation
Compatible with both R12 and R134a refrigerant systems – works whether you’ve got an older system or converted to newer refrigerant
Precise refrigerant flow control that prevents evaporator icing and ensures consistent cooling
Built to handle the temperature swings and vibration that come with tractor operation

Built for Real Farm Work

This valve fits a wide range of Ford tractors from mid-sized utility models through high-horsepower row crop machines, plus select Case IH models. Whether you’re running a loader tractor for daily chores, cultivating corn with a mid-size machine, or pulling heavy implements with a big row-crop tractor, reliable cab cooling makes those long days much more bearable.

Made to Last

The expansion valve is your A/C system’s throttle – controlling exactly how much refrigerant enters the evaporator. Too much flow and the evaporator ices up, blocking airflow. Too little and you get poor cooling despite the compressor running constantly. This valve is built to maintain that precise control through thousands of hours of operation.

Good to Know

Expansion valve replacement demands attention to cleanliness – any contamination causes immediate failure. Always replace the receiver drier when changing valves to remove moisture and debris. Use new O-rings and proper torque specifications. If you’re not comfortable working with AC systems, this is definitely a job for your dealer’s service department.
