OVERVIEW

Don't Compromise on Safety: Oxweld Oxygen Check Valve

When you're under the hood or handling a torch, the last thing you want to worry about is gas mixing in your lines. The ESAB Oxweld 6271725 Oxygen Check Valve is your essential safeguard against reverse flow. Designed to screw right onto your oxygen regulator, this valve acts as a one-way street for your gas. If back pressure from the torch or hose ever tries to push fuel gas back into your oxygen line, this valve slams shut instantly, keeping your regulator and cylinder safe from contamination.

We know that equipment durability matters on the job site. That's why this valve is machined from solid brass—it's tough enough to handle daily wear and tear while resisting rust and oxidation. The standard B-size threads mean you don't need any special adapters; just thread it onto your standard oxygen regulator, tighten it down, and attach your hose. It's a simple upgrade that adds a significant layer of safety to your oxy-fuel setup, whether you are cutting steel, brazing, or heating parts.

Remember, a check valve stops gas from flowing the wrong way, which is the primary cause of mixed-gas accidents. It's a small investment that protects your expensive regulators and, more importantly, you and your crew. This unit is designed for high-flow capacity, so it won't starve your torch or mess with your flame setting. Keep your rig compliant and safe with genuine Oxweld protection. It's smart, simple, and absolutely necessary for any professional welder's gas kit.

FAQ

A check valve prevents the reverse flow of gas, stopping gases from mixing in the hose or regulator. A flashback arrestor stops a flame front from traveling back into the equipment. For maximum safety, both are recommended.

This specific model (6271725) is designed to be installed on the outlet of the oxygen regulator, before the hose connection.

If your regulator has a standard 'B-Size' outlet (9/16"-18 thread), which is the industry standard for most industrial oxygen regulators, this valve will fit perfectly.

Check valves should be tested regularly for reverse flow leaks (at least once every six months or according to manufacturer guidelines) and replaced if they fail the test or show signs of physical damage.

Under normal operating conditions, this high-quality Oxweld valve is designed to provide sufficient flow for standard cutting and welding applications without noticeable restriction.

No. This valve is specifically for Oxygen. Fuel gas valves have left-hand threads (notched nuts) to prevent cross-connection. You need a separate fuel gas check valve for your fuel line.

While the name might imply 'A-size', this SKU is typically associated with standard regulator connections. Always verify your regulator's thread size (B-size is 9/16"-18) before purchasing.

This product is sold as a single unit. You will need one for your oxygen line, and a separate, compatible unit for your fuel line if you are outfitting a full rig.
