There is nothing more frustrating—or dangerous—than a hissing regulator or a torch that won't hold a steady flame. Often, the culprit is a tiny, worn-out seal deep inside your equipment. The ESAB 86W55 Neoprene O-Ring is the genuine replacement part you need to get your Purox or Oxweld gear back in fighting shape. Don't risk your safety or your weld quality on generic hardware store O-rings that might not handle the pressure or the environment of a welding shop.
Why Neoprene Matters
This isn't just a piece of rubber. It is crafted from high-quality Neoprene, a material known for its durability and resistance to aging. In a welding environment, your equipment is exposed to temperature changes, dirt, and handling that can degrade lesser materials. This O-ring is built to resist drying out and cracking, ensuring that when you tighten down your connections, they stay sealed tight. A good seal means consistent gas flow, which translates directly to a stable arc or a clean cut.
Perfect Fit for Vintage and Modern Gear
If you are running classic Purox or Oxweld torches and regulators, you know that finding the right parts can sometimes be a hunt. ESAB continues to support these legendary product lines with genuine parts like the 86W55. Because it is an OEM part, you don't have to guess if it will fit. It drops right in, seating perfectly into the grooves of your equipment to provide that factory-fresh performance you expect.
Maintenance Made Easy
Smart welders keep spare parts on hand. An O-ring failure can stop production dead in its tracks. By keeping a few of these 86W55 seals in your toolbox, you can perform quick field repairs and get back to work in minutes. Whether you are doing a full tear-down and clean of your regulator or just swapping out a seal that's seen better days, this small part plays a huge role in the safety and reliability of your oxy-fuel setup.
