OVERVIEW

Don't Let a Stripped Screw Stop Your Cut

Your regulator is the heart of your oxy-fuel setup, and if you can't adjust the pressure, you can't work. The ESAB Pressure Adjusting Screw (2029235) is the exact replacement you need for your R-52 regulator. We know the R-52 is a classic—tough, reliable, and built to last—but even the toughest tools need maintenance. The adjusting screw takes a beating every day as you dial in settings for different tip sizes and material thicknesses. Eventually, threads can wear down, or the handle can get bent from shop abuse. When that happens, you lose that smooth, easy control you rely on.

Why struggle with a stiff regulator knob or risk stripping the bonnet threads with a mismatched part? This genuine ESAB replacement drops right in, restoring that "like-new" feel to your pressure adjustment. It’s built to the exact factory specs, so you know it fits right the first time. Smooth pressure adjustment means a stable flame, better cuts, and less frustration on the job. It’s a small part that makes a huge difference in your daily workflow.

Repairing your regulator is often much smarter and cheaper than buying a new one. The R-52 platform is worth saving, and this screw is often all it takes to get it back in the game. Whether you are a professional fabricator, a pipe welder, or running a repair shop, keeping your gear in top shape is part of the trade. Don't settle for "close enough" hardware store bolts that could ruin your regulator housing.

Get your gear back up and running fast with high-quality, genuine parts from Welders Supply. We specialize in keeping welders welding. This pressure adjusting screw is simple to install and tough enough to handle the daily grind of the welding shop. Keep a spare in your toolbox or fix that nagging regulator today.

FAQ

This pressure adjusting screw is designed specifically for the ESAB (formerly Purox) R-52 series regulators.

Yes, this is a genuine OEM part from ESAB, ensuring correct fit and material specifications.

Common reasons include stripped threads, a bent handle from impact, or difficulty in turning due to wear or corrosion.

WARNING: Never use oil or grease on any part of an oxygen regulator. Oil in the presence of high-pressure oxygen can cause an explosion. If the screw is stiff, check for thread damage or replace the part.

No, this item is the pressure adjusting screw only. The bonnet and other internal components are sold separately.

First, ensure the system is completely depressurized. Unscrew the old adjusting screw completely from the bonnet and thread the new one in. Ensure it turns freely before pressurizing.

It is not recommended to use this screw on other brands or models, as thread pitch and length are specific to the R-52 design.

It is made of industrial-grade metal designed to withstand the mechanical stress of compressing the regulator spring.
