OVERVIEW

Stop Adjusting Your Regulator and Start Welding

Every welder knows the frustration of the 'end-of-tank' surge. You're in the middle of a long bead, your CO2 tank is getting low, and suddenly your gas flow spikes, ruining your shielding coverage and causing porosity. Or worse, you have to constantly stop and tweak your regulator knob to keep the pressure steady as the tank drains. The Uniweld RHT8013 2-Stage CO2 Regulator solves this problem permanently. By utilizing a two-stage reduction system, this regulator takes the variable pressure from your tank and converts it into a rock-solid, consistent output flow that doesn't waver, even when your tank is nearly empty.

Built by Uniweld, a trusted name in the industry, this regulator is a tank in its own right. It features a heavy-duty forged brass body that can take the abuse of a busy shop floor or a mobile rig. The CGA 320 connection fits standard CO2 cylinders perfectly, and the unit is designed to handle the specific properties of carbon dioxide without freezing up under normal duty cycles. The large adjustment handle is easy to grab even when you're wearing welding gloves, allowing you to dial in your exact pressure settings with ease. The clear, dual-scale gauges let you see exactly how much gas you have left and what your output is, so you're never caught off guard by an empty cylinder.

This regulator is ideal for MIG welding applications where 100% CO2 is used as a shielding gas for deep penetration on steel. The consistency provided by the two-stage design means you get a smoother arc and better weld quality from the first strike to the last. Don't let fluctuating gas pressure compromise your welds. Upgrade to the Uniweld RHT8013 and experience the difference that constant, reliable pressure makes in your fabrication work. It's an investment in quality that pays for itself by saving you time and reducing rework caused by gas flow issues.

FAQ

A 1-stage regulator reduces cylinder pressure to working pressure in one step, which can cause the delivery pressure to rise as the cylinder empties. A 2-stage regulator reduces pressure in two steps, ensuring the delivery pressure remains constant regardless of the cylinder pressure level.

The RHT8013 is equipped with a CGA 320 inlet connection, which is the standard fitting for Carbon Dioxide (CO2) cylinders.

Yes, CGA 320 connections typically require a flat washer (nylon or fiber) to create a proper seal between the regulator and the cylinder valve.

No, this regulator is specifically designed for CO2 with a CGA 320 connection. Argon and Nitrogen typically use CGA 580 connections. You would need a different regulator or an adapter, though using the correct regulator is always recommended for safety.

While the 2-stage design helps manage flow, CO2 can freeze regulators during high-flow applications due to the cooling effect of expansion. For very high flow rates, a heated regulator or separate heater may be required, but for standard welding use, this unit performs reliably.

The Uniweld RHT8013 typically offers a delivery pressure range of approximately 5 to 125 PSIG, suitable for most welding and industrial applications.

Yes, provided the pressure range (5-125 PSI) suits the system requirements and the fittings are compatible. However, it is primarily built for industrial and welding durability.

There are two gauges: the high-pressure gauge (usually right) shows the amount of gas left in the tank, and the low-pressure gauge (usually left) shows the working pressure you are sending to your equipment.
