OVERVIEW

Get Connected with the Victor 0960-0017 Bushing

When you're setting up a gas rig or fixing a manifold, having the right adaptor can make or break the job. The Victor 0960-0017 Brass Bushing is the part you need when you have a 3/8" pipe thread port and need to convert it to a standard 7/8" Left-Hand fuel gas outlet. It's a simple, rugged piece of hardware that solves connection headaches instantly.

We know that in the shop, safety and durability come first. That's why this bushing is made from heavy-duty brass that won't strip easily or crack under pressure. The "Left-Hand" (LH) thread is specifically designed for fuel gases like acetylene and propane, ensuring you never accidentally hook up an oxygen line to a fuel source—a small detail that keeps everyone safe. The 3/8" Male NPT side screws tight into your manifold or pipe drop, while the 7/8" Male side is ready to accept your regulator nut or hose adaptor.

Don't rely on cheap, poorly machined fittings that leak or cross-thread. Stick with genuine Victor parts for a secure seal every time. Whether you are building a new station drop or replacing a worn-out outlet, this bushing gives you the professional fit and finish your equipment deserves.

Why Choose This Bushing?

  • Solid Brass: Tough enough for daily shop use.
  • Safety First: Left-hand threads prevent dangerous gas mix-ups.
  • Perfect Fit: Precision threads mean no fighting to get it installed.

FAQ

This bushing features a 3/8" Male NPT thread on one end and a 7/8"-14 Male Left-Hand thread on the other.

No, this bushing has Left-Hand (LH) threads, which indicates it is designed for fuel gases (like acetylene or propane). Oxygen fittings typically use Right-Hand threads.

It is manufactured from solid brass, which is standard for gas fittings due to its durability and non-sparking properties.

Left-Hand threads are a safety standard for fuel gases to prevent accidental connection to incompatible gases like oxygen or nitrogen.

The 7/8"-14 LH thread is compatible with the nut used on CGA 510 connections, often found on acetylene and propane regulators.

For the NPT (tapered pipe thread) end, a suitable gas-rated thread sealant or PTFE tape is recommended. The straight thread (7/8" LH) end typically seals via a nipple/seat mechanism and does not require tape on the threads.

Yes, this is a genuine Victor (ESAB) component, part number 0960-0017.

You will need a wrench sized to fit the hex body of the bushing. Ensure the system is depressurized before installation.
