This air-conditioning pipe carries refrigerant between the compressor and the condenser in the tractor's HVAC loop. It is the rigid line that connects the high-pressure side of the system, routing gas through the front bulkhead to the condenser core. A leak at the crimped fitting or along the tube wall causes a gradual loss of refrigerant, reducing cooling capacity until the compressor cycles off. The pipe is formed to match the original routing path so it clears the engine fan shroud and radiator hoses without contact. On replacement, install new O-rings at both connection ports and evacuate the system before recharging.
