OVERVIEW

Restore Your Flowmeter with the Victor 1015-0055 Assembly

There are few things more frustrating in the shop than trying to set your gas flow on a meter you can't read. Whether your flowtube has become cloudy from age, cracked from a tip-over, or simply covered in shop grime that won't wipe off, the Victor 1015-0055 Flowtube Assembly is the solution to get you back to welding. This is a complete replacement assembly, meaning you don't have to fiddle around with tiny floats or loose scales—it is designed to swap out directly with your damaged unit on compatible Victor flowmeters.

Accurate gas flow is the invisible foundation of a good weld. If your tube is cracked, you might be leaking expensive Argon or C25 mix without knowing it. If it's dirty, you might be guessing at your flow rate, leading to porosity if it's too low or turbulence if it's too high. This genuine Victor part brings back the crystal-clear visibility you need. The scale markings are sharp and easy to read from a distance, allowing you to verify your settings with a quick glance before you drop your hood. It is built tough to handle the knocks and bumps of a busy garage or job site.

Installation is straightforward for anyone familiar with regulator maintenance. Simply depressurize your system, remove the housing cover (if applicable), and swap in the new assembly. It’s a small investment that protects your weld quality and saves you money on wasted gas. Don't let a $50 regulator problem ruin a $500 welding project. Keep your gear in top shape with this original Victor replacement part and ensure your shielding gas is doing exactly what it's supposed to do.

FAQ

The assembly typically includes the outer tube, the inner flow tube with the scale, and the float ball. It is a complete unit ready for installation.

No, it is designed for specific Victor flowmeter models (often the HRF series). Please check your regulator's parts diagram or manual to confirm the part number 1015-0055 matches.

Polycarbonate tubes can become cloudy over time due to UV exposure, age, or contact with incompatible cleaning solvents. Replacement is the only way to restore clarity.

No. Never use harsh solvents like brake cleaner, acetone, or gasoline on plastic flowtubes as they will cause immediate cracking and failure. Use mild soap and water only.

Read the flow rate at the center of the ball float (or the top, depending on the specific scale instructions, but center is standard for ball floats) while the gas is flowing.

The tube assembly itself is often used for multiple gases, but the scale inside is calibrated. Ensure the scale matches the gas you are using (Argon/CO2/Helium) for accurate readings.

If the leak is coming from a cracked tube or the seal at the bottom of the tube, yes. If the leak is from the diaphragm or tank connection, this part will not fix it.

Yes, this is a genuine Victor (ESAB) replacement part, ensuring correct fitment and material quality.
