OVERVIEW

Keep Your R-501 Regulator Running Strong

Don't let a worn-out regulator slow down your production. The ESAB 32Z60 Seat Nozzle is the exact replacement part you need to fix a leaking or creeping R-501 regulator. If you notice your delivery pressure gauge climbing when your torch is not in use, or if you are struggling to maintain a consistent flame, the culprit is often a damaged seat nozzle. This small but mighty component is the heart of your regulator's pressure control system, and replacing it can bring an old workhorse back to life.

The R-501 is known for being a beast in the industry, capable of handling high flow rates for heavy cutting and heating. However, even the toughest equipment needs maintenance. The 32Z60 is built to the same heavy-duty standards as the regulator itself. It features a robust brass construction that resists deformation and a specialized seating surface that ensures a gas-tight seal every time. Whether you are working with oxygen, acetylene, or other fuel gases, using the correct seat nozzle is vital for both performance and safety.

Repairing your regulator with the 32Z60 is a cost-effective alternative to buying a brand-new unit. Professional repair technicians and experienced fabricators trust genuine ESAB parts because they fit right the first time and last longer than generic knock-offs. This kit includes the complete seat nozzle assembly, ready to be installed into the regulator body. Get your gas distribution system back to peak efficiency and stop wasting gas with this essential repair part.

FAQ

The 32Z60 is designed specifically for the ESAB (formerly Oxweld) R-501 series industrial regulators.

Common signs include 'creeping' pressure (where the delivery pressure rises while the torch is off), internal humming or vibration, or an inability to shut off gas flow completely.

Yes, this is a genuine OEM ESAB part, ensuring the correct fit and material specifications for safe operation.

The R-501 series often uses specific internal parts depending on the gas service. Always verify your specific regulator's parts list, but the 32Z60 is a common seat component for this chassis.

It is constructed from high-quality brass with a specialized synthetic sealing insert designed to withstand high-pressure gas service.

Repairing a regulator typically requires a bench vise, specific wrenches for the bonnet, and a clean, oil-free environment. It is recommended that repairs be performed by qualified personnel.

ESAB replacement parts are generally warranted against manufacturing defects. Check with the supplier for specific warranty terms.

This is called 'creep' and is usually caused by a damaged seat nozzle (like the 32Z60) allowing high-pressure gas to leak into the low-pressure chamber.
