0952-0001 - Victor 1/4 NPTM Brass Swivel Fitting, No Filter

Enhance Torch Mobility and Safety

For professional welders and fabricators, equipment ergonomics can be just as important as the power source itself. The Victor 0952-0001 Swivel is designed to solve one of the most common annoyances in the shop: fighting with stiff or twisted hoses. By installing this swivel fitting at the regulator or manifold connection point, you allow your gas lines to rotate freely. This simple addition significantly reduces the drag and pull on your torch or equipment, allowing for smoother movements and less fatigue during long cuts or welds.

This specific model features a 1/4 inch NPT Male thread, commonly found on many regulators and gas supply ports. It is manufactured by Victor, a name that welders have trusted for decades for oxy-fuel and gas control equipment. The "W/O FLTR" designation means this swivel does not contain a sintered filter, providing an unrestricted path for your gas flow. This is particularly useful in high-flow applications or setups where you want to minimize flow restrictions. The durable brass construction stands up to the rigors of the welding shop, resisting knocks, scrapes, and corrosion.

Using a swivel also protects your investment in hoses. Constant twisting and kinking can lead to premature failure of the hose lining, creating safety hazards like leaks or bursts. By alleviating this stress at the connection point, the Victor 0952-0001 helps maintain the structural integrity of your gas lines. Whether you are setting up a new cutting station or upgrading an old manifold system, this swivel is a small but essential upgrade for a safer, more comfortable work environment.
