Application and Buying Notes
Before ordering, match the part number SBX2143-3 against the fitting you are replacing and confirm the hose end details line up with the listed #10 hose / line size, 90 degree angle, and 7/8 - 14 thread. Those are the key identifiers on this fitting, and they should be checked against the existing line or hose assembly before purchase.
The access port type is listed as R134a, which is useful when checking the A/C system connection style, but it does not confirm vehicle fitment on its own. Always compare the physical hose end, thread, and crimp style together rather than relying on a general application description.
The one-year warranty applies to the product as listed, but it does not replace the need to confirm suitability for your repair. If you are rebuilding a hose or replacing a damaged end, measure the existing fitting carefully and check the angle, size, and thread before fitting up the new part.
Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.
For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number SBX2143-3 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

Where no verified application list is available, the part number, mounting details, connector style, and published specifications should be used as the primary selection criteria.
