Hydrocarbon refrigerants are considered around the World to be superb professional refrigeration products and are widely used outside of North America in a full range of applications and systems. RED TEK 12a is a highly refined Hydrocarbon product formulated and blended to replace R12 and R134a refrigerants in existing installations with few, if any, modifications to an existing system.

RED TEK 12a, a proprietary blended, highly efficient Hydrocarbon refrigerant, is designed as a direct replacement and retrofit refrigerant option for replacing R134a and R12 substitutes in automotive air conditioning and refrigeration systems. 12a operates at lower head pressures and offers improved cooling properties and performance versus R134a and R12.

RED TEK 12a contains no chlorine or bromine and therefore has “NO” ozone depletion potential. Its global warming potential is related to the carbon dioxide produced when it breaks down in the atmosphere. When compared to R12 or R134a, Greenpeace International shows the amount of carbon dioxide is insignificant.

RED TEK 12a is considered one of the most environmentally friendly refrigerants available in the marketplace. RED TEK 12a is environmentally preferred Worldwide.
  • Operation - RED TEK 12a possesses similar volumetric refrigerating effects to R12 and 134a refrigerants and operates at lower head pressures versus R12 or R134a. It can be used effectively in R12 or R134a refrigeration systems without major “retrofitting.”
  • Lower Cost - Red Tek 12a is a lower cost option for both R12 and R134a “retrofits.” Additionally, 12a offers energy savings of up to 30%.
  • Environment - RED TEK 12a is a 100% natural organic, HC refrigerant that is non-ozone depleting and non-global warming. 12a refrigerant has a very short atmospheric lifetime-weeks and months vs. 100’s of years for CFC-R12. Once released into the atmosphere, RED TEK 12a breaks down into carbon dioxide and water. Although carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, it is a very weak one. The significant effect of carbon dioxide on global warming is due to substantial quantities released through burning fossil fuels for power generation. The amount released using Alkane / Hydrocarbon refrigerants would be an extremely low proportion of the overall global total.
  • System Compatibility - No retrofitting needed. RED TEK 12a is designed as a direct drop-in replacement for R-134a and R-12 substitutes. RED TEK 12a requires no significant redesigning of the refrigeration system because it is compatible with R134a, R12, metal components, compressor motor materials, mineral, and synthetic (Ester and PAG) lubricants, seals, gaskets, hoses, compressors, and O-rings.

    Note: RED TEK Refrigerants and R12 Mineral Oil are not compatible with Butyl Rubber Hoses.
