Copper coil buying guide
Refrigeration-grade (ACR) copper is cleaned, dehydrated and capped so that no moisture or debris enters the refrigerant circuit. Plumbing copper is not a substitute. For split AC installation you need two coils per unit — a liquid line and a larger suction line — sized to the unit's connections.
| Unit capacity | Liquid line | Suction line |
|---|---|---|
| 1 ton | 1/4" | 3/8" |
| 1.5 ton | 1/4" | 1/2" |
| 2 ton | 1/4" | 5/8" |
| 2.5–3 ton | 3/8" | 5/8" |
| 4–5 ton | 3/8" | 3/4" |
Confirm against the nameplate; use the copper pipe size helper to calculate coil quantities for your run length. Each coil is 15.24 m (50 ft).
Wall thickness and R410A
R410A systems run at higher pressure than R22. Use the wall thickness the manufacturer specifies (typically 0.8 mm up to 1/2", 0.8–1.0 mm above) and an R410A-rated flaring tool. The Maksal Economical range is suited to standard residential installations; ask us before using it on long commercial runs.
Maksal or Mueller?
Both are ACR-grade. Maksal Economical is stocked in the full size range and priced per coil from AED 157; Mueller is a US manufacturer brand often named in specifications. See Mueller vs Maksal.
Installation tips for the UAE
- Keep coils capped until the moment of use; moisture in POE oil causes acid.
- Purge with nitrogen while brazing to prevent oxide scale.
- Bend with a bender — kinks restrict flow and trap oil.
- Insulate both lines with closed-cell insulation; at 45 °C ambient an uninsulated liquid line loses capacity and a bare suction line sweats.
Copper prices follow the global market; see the copper coil price guide. Installers buying by the carton can request bulk pricing.
Copper Coils FAQs
What size copper for a 1.5 ton AC?
1/4" liquid and 1/2" suction in most cases.
How long is a coil?
15.24 m (50 ft).
Do you sell straight lengths or fittings?
Hard-drawn straight lengths, elbows and couplers can be sourced on request.
Is the copper suitable for R410A?
Yes when the wall thickness matches the manufacturer's specification; ask us for commercial applications.
Do prices change often?
Yes — copper tracks the LME market. The product page shows the current price.
