When working with compressed oxygen, leak integrity is non-negotiable. Using genuine ESAB fittings like the 2118111 ensures that your connections are tight and secure. The machined barbs or tube stub (depending on specific tube interface) provide a solid surface for clamps or ferrules to grip, preventing hose blow-off under pressure. This part is an excellent addition to any welder's spare parts kit, ensuring that a damaged hose end or incompatible connection doesn't bring production to a halt.

Whether you are a professional pipefitter, a fabrication shop manager, or a dedicated hobbyist, trusting OEM parts for your gas apparatus guarantees compliance with safety standards and optimal equipment performance. Ensure your oxygen lines are safe and efficient with this high-quality brass adapter.
