OVERVIEW

Streamline Your Oxy-Fuel Workflow

Maximize your productivity and safety on the job site with the Western Enterprises QC-RHX Oxygen Quick Connect Set. In the fast-paced world of welding and fabrication, time spent threading and unthreading hoses is time lost. This premium quick-connect fitting allows you to attach or detach your torch from the oxygen hose instantly with a simple push-and-click motion. Ideal for welders who frequently switch between cutting, welding, and heating torches, the QC-RHX transforms a tedious task into a seamless part of your operation.

Built-In Check Valve Protection

Beyond convenience, the QC-RHX is a vital safety upgrade for your rig. It comes equipped with an integrated Reverse Flow Check Valve. This mechanism ensures that gas flows only in the intended direction—towards the torch—and prevents back-pressure from forcing gases back into the hose. This significantly reduces the risk of accidental gas mixing, which can lead to hazardous situations. The fitting also incorporates a positive locking mechanism to prevent accidental disconnection during use, giving you peace of mind while you work.

Universal Compatibility and Rugged Design

Designed to withstand the rigors of daily use, the QC-RHX is crafted from heavy-duty brass that resists wear and tear. It features standard 9/16"-18 "B" size Right-Hand threads, making it universally compatible with most standard American oxygen torches and hoses. The set includes both the male plug (for the torch) and the female body (for the hose). The female body is equipped with a durable sleeve that protects the internal sealing mechanism from dirt and debris. Whether you are using a shop bench setup or a mobile Protogo tote, this quick connect ensures a leak-free, secure, and safe connection every time.

FAQ

The QC-RHX is designed specifically for Oxygen service. It features Right-Hand (RH) threads and is typically color-coded green.

No, the QC-RHX includes a reverse flow check valve, not a flashback arrestor. While it prevents backflow, a separate flashback arrestor is recommended for complete protection.

It has standard B-Size 9/16"-18 Right-Hand threads, which fits most standard welding torches and hoses.

No, the QC-RHX is a 'Torch-to-Hose' model. For Regulator-to-Hose connections, you would need a different model designed for that specific flow direction and gender.

Yes, the female body (hose side) has an automatic shut-off valve that stops gas flow when the male plug is removed.

Yes, since the Protogo system uses standard B-size fittings, the QC-RHX is fully compatible and often used as an upgrade or replacement part.

These fittings are generally rated for gas pressures up to 200 PSIG, which covers standard oxy-fuel operating ranges.
