  • Appion’s Valve Core Removal Tools are easy to complete a full rebuild on. Since these o-rings and seals take a lot of wear every time the tool is used, it’s a good idea to check them regularly and replace them when worn. The KTMV25 kit includes O-rings for the swivel fitting, stem assembly, and tool body, along with ball valve seals and valve cores. This makes it a great kit to keep on hand for on the job repairs or preventative maintenance. This video will show you how to replace the internal o-rings and seals on second-generation Appion VCRTs.
    ⚠️ Repair Tips:
    🔧 Use the blunt end of a ballpoint pen to help fit the o-rings into their groove in the fitting
    🔧 Lubricate new o-rings with clean vacuum pump oil for easier installation
    🔧 Use another VCRT or system fitting to fully seat the o-ring before use

      You literally can rebuild two of these because the rebuild kits do two of them for $43 or pay $160 for two new ones. It takes time to do the first one but it's alot cheaper

    On the older style removal tools how do you remove the pin

      Ideally, use a 1/16in punch or 3mm punch if you can find one. You can also use a very small allen wrench to get it out, but then you risk damaging the allen wrench.

    If you need a second VCRT to do this repair, you might as well just buy a new one and skip the work
