16531 - Miller 16531 Heavy-Duty Shielding Gas Flowmeter - Argon/CO2/Helium

Optimize Your Shielding Gas Coverage

Achieving the perfect weld requires more than just a steady hand; it demands precise control over your shielding gas. The Miller 16531 Heavy-Duty Flowmeter is designed specifically for professional welders who demand accuracy and reliability in their MIG and TIG setups. Calibrated for Argon, CO2, and Helium, this flowmeter ensures that your weld pool receives exactly the right amount of coverage, preventing porosity and oxidation without wasting expensive gas.

Built Tough for the Welding Shop

Welding shops are tough environments where equipment can easily get damaged. Miller has engineered the 16531 to survive the daily grind. The heart of the unit is a shatter-resistant polycarbonate flow tube, which is far more durable than traditional glass tubes found on cheaper regulators. To further protect your investment, this model comes encased in a rugged aluminum housing. This protective shell guards the tube against impact from tools, cylinders, or other machinery, ensuring your flowmeter stays operational job after job.

The Miller Accuracy Advantage

One of the most common issues with standard flowmeters is the "floating ball" problem, where the ball drifts to the side of the tube, giving a false reading. This often leads welders to turn up the gas unnecessarily, wasting money. The Miller 16531 solves this with a unique self-centering ball guide. This technology keeps the ball perfectly centered, providing a true reading of your gas flow even if the tank or regulator is slightly tipped. This means you save money on gas consumables while maintaining the high-quality shielding your welds require.

Clear Readings, Better Welds

Visibility is key when you are under the hood or adjusting settings from a distance. The 16531 features an extra-long scale with a high-visibility green background, making it incredibly easy to read your flow rate at a glance. The expanded scale allows for fine-tuning, giving you the control you need for critical welding procedures. With a standard 1/4" FNPT connection, it easily attaches to most standard regulators and pipeline drops. Backed by Miller's True Blue 3-Year Warranty, this flowmeter is a smart upgrade for any serious welder.
