0705-0006 - Victor Regulator Diaphragm Slip Ring 0705-0006

Keep Your Regulator Running Smoothly

Is your Victor regulator's adjustment knob feeling gritty, or is the pressure setting jumping unexpectedly? It might be time for a tune-up. The Victor 0705-0006 Diaphragm Slip Ring is the unsung hero inside your regulator that keeps everything operating smoothly. Located deep inside the bonnet, this simple ring plays a massive role in protecting the heart of your regulator—the diaphragm.

Every time you dial in your pressure for a cut or a weld, you are compressing a heavy-duty spring. This slip ring sits right on top of the diaphragm assembly, acting as a shield. It allows the spring and adjusting mechanism to turn without twisting the delicate diaphragm underneath. If this ring is worn out, missing, or damaged, the friction from the spring can grab the diaphragm, causing it to bunch up or tear. A torn diaphragm means gas leaks, fluctuating pressure, and a regulator that is unsafe to use.

When you are rebuilding your trusty Victor SR 450 or SR 460, don't cut corners. Reusing old, grooved slip rings can compromise the feel and safety of your regulator. Installing a fresh, genuine Victor 0705-0006 slip ring ensures that your pressure adjustments feel buttery smooth and accurate. It is a small investment that protects the most expensive parts of your gas equipment and keeps you safe in the shop.

Designed specifically for Victor's professional line of equipment, this part drops right in during a standard rebuild. Whether you are a professional repair technician or a welder who takes pride in maintaining their own gear, using OEM parts is the best way to guarantee performance. Keep your flame steady and your shop safe with genuine Victor replacement parts.
