0717-0038 - Victor Sintered Bronze Inlet Filter .312 x .062

Protect Your Regulator and Keep the Flame Steady

Every welder knows that consistent gas flow is key to a quality weld or cut. The Victor 0717-0038 Filter is the small but mighty part that keeps your regulator running smoothly. Located in the inlet of your gas equipment, this sintered bronze disc acts as a shield, catching dirt, metal shavings, and debris that might be hiding in your gas cylinder before they can wreck your regulator.

If you are noticing erratic flow or if your regulator is "creeping" (pressure rising when the torch is off), a dirty or missing filter might be the culprit. Debris on the regulator seat is the number one cause of regulator failure. Installing a fresh 0717-0038 filter is a cheap insurance policy that protects your expensive Victor gear from permanent damage. It is designed specifically for Victor equipment requiring a .312" x .062" filter, ensuring a drop-in fit without any guessing.

Don't settle for generic parts when rebuilding or maintaining your torch outfit. This genuine Victor part maintains the correct flow characteristics for your oxygen or fuel gas, ensuring your flame stays neutral and your shielding gas coverage remains constant. Whether you are doing a full rebuild or just swapping out a clogged filter during a bottle change, keep a few of these in your toolbox to avoid downtime.
