OVERVIEW

Genuine Victor Replacement Adjusting Spring 0761-0118

Keep your oxy-fuel and gas regulation equipment in top fighting shape with the Victor 0761-0118 Adjusting Spring. Designed specifically for Victor's line of heavy-duty industrial regulators, this spring is the component responsible for counteracting the high-pressure gas forces within the regulator body. It allows the operator to finely tune delivery pressure for cutting, welding, or heating applications. A worn or broken spring can render a high-quality regulator useless, but a simple replacement can extend the service life of your tool by years.

Symptoms of a Worn Spring

Industrial environments are tough on equipment. Moisture, humidity, and constant cycling can degrade internal springs. Common signs that your adjusting spring needs replacement include:

  • Inconsistent Pressure: The gauge needle fluctuates or drifts after setting.
  • Limited Range: You are unable to dial up to the regulator's maximum rated pressure.
  • Stiff or Loose Knob: The adjustment knob feels gritty, overly stiff, or completely loose with no resistance.

By swapping out the old spring for this fresh OEM Victor 0761-0118 unit, you restore the mechanical balance required for stable gas flow.

Compatibility and Quality

This part is engineered by Victor Technologies to fit seamlessly into their regulator bonnets. It provides the correct spring rate (stiffness) required to balance the diaphragm against the inlet pressure. Using a generic spring with an incorrect rate could lead to dangerous over-pressurization or insufficient flow. Trust only genuine Victor parts to maintain the safety certifications and performance reliability of your gas apparatus.

Application

Ideal for MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) professionals, welding shops, and equipment repair specialists. Whether you are rebuilding a vintage Victor regulator or performing preventative maintenance on a shop floor unit, this adjusting spring is a small but vital piece of the puzzle. Ensure your cutting torches and welding machines receive the steady gas flow they need for defect-free work.

FAQ

It provides the necessary downward force on the regulator diaphragm to set and maintain the delivery pressure when the adjustment knob is turned.

It is designed for Victor heavy-duty regulators, commonly including the SR 450 and SR 460 series. Always check your specific model's parts diagram to confirm.

Signs include difficulty adjusting pressure, the pressure 'creeping' or drifting, or the adjustment knob feeling loose or lacking tension.

Yes, this is an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part from Victor Technologies (ESAB).

Installation requires disassembling the regulator bonnet. Due to the high pressures involved in gas equipment, it is recommended that repairs be performed by a qualified technician.

It is manufactured from high-grade spring steel designed to resist fatigue and maintain consistent tension over time.

No, this item is the spring only. The adjusting screw and other bonnet parts are sold separately.

Not necessarily. A leaking regulator is often caused by a damaged seat, nozzle, or diaphragm. The spring primarily affects pressure adjustment, not sealing.
