Abstract: A vehicle air conditioning condenser includes two tubular members, one on each end of the condenser, for conducting refrigerant to the cooling tubes. A connector block, having a half cylindrical indentation extending from the top of the block to the bottom of the block, is affixed to one of the tubular members of the condenser. The internal radius of curvature of the half cylindrical indentation is substantially the same as the external radius of curvature of the tubular member of the condenser to which the tubular block is attached. The connector block contains a circular first opening of predetermined size with female threads for receiving and securing a connector fitting. Refrigerant passes from an inlet tube assembly, through the connector fitting, into the connector block, through a tubular passage way, into the tubular member and into the cooling tubes.
