998779 - ESAB Mixer Throat #200 for W-201 Torch

Genuine ESAB Replacement for W-201 Torches

Keep your oxy-fuel welding equipment operating at peak efficiency with the ESAB 998779 Mixer Throat #200. Designed specifically for the legendary W-201 series torches (formerly Purox), this component is critical for the safe mixing of oxygen and acetylene or other fuel gases. The mixer throat acts as the venturi chamber where gases combine, and its precise internal dimensions are key to preventing backfires and maintaining a consistent flame profile.

Professional welders understand that the quality of the flame dictates the quality of the weld. A worn or damaged mixer throat can lead to turbulent gas flow, which manifests as a sputtering flame or an inability to achieve a proper cone. In severe cases, a damaged throat can increase the risk of a flashback, where the flame burns back into the torch. The ESAB 998779 is manufactured to exact factory tolerances to prevent these hazards, providing a smooth, controlled gas mixture that responds accurately to your valve adjustments.

Key Features and Benefits:

• OEM Quality: Manufactured by ESAB to the original Purox specifications for a perfect fit and seal.
• Durable Brass Construction: Machined from solid brass to withstand thermal cycling and resist oxidation.
• Safety First: Restores the integrity of the mixing chamber to prevent leaks and flashbacks.
• Versatile Compatibility: Fits W-201, W-200, and W-202 torch handles using the #200 mixer assembly.

Installation is straightforward for those familiar with torch maintenance. Simply disassemble the mixer assembly, remove the old throat, and thread in the new #200 unit. This simple maintenance step can significantly extend the life of your torch handle and improve your daily welding experience. Trust in ESAB's legacy of quality to keep your fabrication projects on track.
