0740-0115 - Victor Regulator Seat Assembly 0740-0115 for SR 450/460

Fix Your Regulator and Stop the Creep

If you've noticed your Victor regulator's pressure gauge climbing even when you aren't welding or cutting, you are likely experiencing 'regulator creep.' This isn't just annoying; it's a safety hazard and a sign that your internal components are worn out. The Victor 0740-0115 Seat & Stem Assembly is the exact part you need to fix this issue on heavy-duty regulators like the SR 450 or SR 460. Think of the seat assembly as the valve that holds back the massive pressure from your gas tank. When it gets nicked, dirty, or worn, it lets gas sneak by, messing up your settings and potentially popping your safety relief valve.

Don't settle for cheap knock-offs when it comes to gas equipment. This is a genuine Victor part, meaning it fits perfectly and is made of the right stuff to handle high-pressure oxygen and fuel gases safely. Swapping out an old, worn seat for this fresh assembly brings your regulator back to life, giving you that crisp, steady flame adjustment you had when the gear was new. It’s a smart, low-cost repair that saves you from having to buy a brand-new regulator. Whether you are running a busy fab shop or a mobile repair rig, keeping your regulators in top shape means less downtime and better welds.

Installation is straightforward for those experienced with regulator repair. The assembly drops right into the high-pressure side of the regulator body, replacing the old stem and seat. Once installed, you'll notice immediate stability in your delivery pressure. No more constantly tweaking the knob to keep your flame neutral. Keep a few of these 0740-0115 assemblies in your toolbox or parts bin so you're never stuck with a creeping regulator in the middle of a critical job. Trust Victor parts to keep your torch burning right.
