Danfoss / Eaton E-Z Clip System A/C Refrigeration Products Cages offer streamlined assembly for refrigeration systems. These cages, crafted by Danfoss Power Solutions, facilitate robust connections without requiring crimping or external power.
Assembly involves precise hose cutting, clip installation, nipple lubrication, and inserting the nipple firmly into the hose. The cage snaps into the nipple groove, clips slide over the cage arms, and the FT1357 Clip Closing Pliers ensure a secure fit.
Designed for ease of use, they effectively prevent leaks. Essential tools include a guillotine blade (FT1356), refrigerant oil, GH134 Multi-Refrigerant hose, correctly sized clips, and a nipple assembly with specific rubber compound o-rings.
Please note, E-Z Cliptrade; components are non-reusable.

Product Questions & Answers (5)
Question by: Curt C on Nov 13, 2025, 6:53 PM
i already got the nipple and clips, what exactly are these “cages” for in the e-z clip setup?
Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 15, 2025, 1:20 PM
In the E-Z Clip assembly, the cage snaps into the groove on the nipple after the nipple is pushed into the hose. When it is seated right, the cage will rotate in that groove. The two clips then slide over the cage arms and into the channels on each arm, and you close those clips with the FT1357 clip closing pliers.

say I mess up a line can I just reuse these clips and the cage or are they a one time deal
Answer by: Customer Support on Apr 24, 2025, 7:07 AM
E-Z Clip components are strictly single-use and cannot be reused. Once a connection is made, any adjustments or new hoses will require a fresh set of clips and a new cage.

i’ve got the E-Z Clip stuff for A/C work. are these cages the little pieces that snap on the nipple so the clips can grab?
Answer by: Customer Support on Sep 2, 2025, 9:57 PM
In the E-Z Clip system, the cage is the part that snaps into the groove on the nipple after the nipple is pushed into the hose. Once the cage is seated, the clips slide over the cage arms and get closed with the FT1357 Clip Closing Pliers to lock the connection in place.

What exactly does this cage do in the A/C system?
Answer by: Customer Support on Sep 24, 2025, 6:21 AM
The cage provides a secure connection point for the hose and nipple assembly in refrigeration systems, making sure there aren't any leaks.
Question by: Carl A on Mar 8, 2026, 7:09 AM
what tools do i actually need on hand before putting one of these together? trying to figure out if i gotta order anything extra before i get started
Answer by: Customer Support on Mar 9, 2026, 11:27 AM
A few specific items are required before assembly. You will need a guillotine blade cutter (FT1356) to get a clean hose cut, refrigerant oil to lubricate the nipple, GH134 Multi-Refrigerant hose, the correctly sized clips, and a nipple assembly with rubber compound o-rings. The FT1357 Clip Closing Pliers are also needed to lock everything down securely at the end. Having all of that staged before you start makes the process go a lot smoother.
