Frequently asked questions
Common questions about DURO LINE from 3G Electric.
What sizes of DURO LINE insulated line sets does 3G Electric supply?
3G Electric supplies DURO LINE insulated line sets in 15 ft, 25 ft, and 50 ft lengths. The plain liquid line is available in 1/4 in or 3/8 in outside diameter. All configurations use 1/2 in black elastomeric insulation on the suction line. Part numbers follow a pattern that indicates length and liquid-line size, such as SLS141215 for a 15 ft set with a 1/4 in liquid line, or SLS385850 for a 50 ft set with a 3/8 in liquid line. The catalog includes multiple SKUs to cover common split-system layouts.
What materials are used in DURO LINE refrigerant line sets?
DURO LINE line sets are constructed with steel tubing and steel connection fittings. The insulation is black elastomeric material with a 1/2 in thickness. The use of steel for both the line and connections distinguishes these sets from copper-based alternatives. The elastomeric insulation is intended to reduce thermal gain and prevent condensation on the suction line. The liquid line is uninsulated and is available in 1/4 in or 3/8 in outside diameter. These material specifications are consistent across the DURO LINE line set range.
Can DURO LINE line sets be used in refrigeration systems as well as HVAC?
DURO LINE insulated line sets are used to connect outdoor condensing units to indoor evaporator coils in split HVAC systems and in refrigeration applications. The product descriptions indicate use in both HVAC and refrigeration contexts. The steel construction and elastomeric insulation are suitable for the temperature ranges typical of these systems. However, the specific refrigerant and operating pressure should be verified against the line set's ratings. The line sets are intended for installation by qualified technicians using appropriate connection methods for steel tubing.
How do I identify the correct DURO LINE part number for my application?
DURO LINE part numbers encode the line set configuration. For example, SLS141225 indicates a 25 ft length with a 1/4 in liquid line, while SLS387825 indicates a 25 ft length with a 3/8 in liquid line. The first digits after SLS relate to the liquid-line size and length. To select the correct part, determine the required length and the liquid-line diameter needed for the condensing unit and evaporator coil. 3G Electric's catalog lists each SKU with its specifications, including length, liquid-line size, insulation thickness, and materials, to assist with identification.
Does 3G Electric provide datasheets for DURO LINE products?
Yes, 3G Electric provides datasheets for DURO LINE insulated line sets as part of its product documentation. The datasheets include specifications such as line material, connection material, insulation thickness, insulation color, plain liquid line size, and overall length. These documents can be used for submittals, verification, and procurement records. 3G Electric supports global delivery and can provide quotes for specific SKUs. For additional technical information not included in the datasheet, buyers can contact 3G Electric through standard procurement channels.
What is the insulation thickness on DURO LINE line sets?
DURO LINE insulated line sets feature 1/2 in thick black elastomeric insulation on the suction line. This thickness is consistent across the range of lengths and liquid-line diameters. The insulation is designed to minimize thermal gain and prevent condensation on the exterior of the suction line. The liquid line is not insulated. The insulation material is elastomeric, which is a closed-cell material commonly used in HVAC and refrigeration piping applications. The black color is standard for DURO LINE line sets.
