LW17-F - Smith Equipment Fuel Valve Assembly - Nickel Plated Replacement

Get Your Flame Back Under Control

There is nothing more frustrating than a torch that won't shut off completely or a flame that wanders while you are trying to make a critical cut. If your Smith torch handle is fighting you, it might be time to replace the fuel valve. The Smith Equipment LW17-F Valve Assembly is the genuine replacement part you need to get your gear running like new again. Don't settle for generic knock-offs that might leak or strip out; stick with the quality of Smith Equipment parts.

This isn't just a knob; it's the heart of your fuel control. The nickel-plated finish isn't just for looks—it makes the valve tough as nails, resisting the grime, spatter, and heat of the shop. The knurled knob gives you a solid grip, even when you are wearing heavy welding gloves, allowing you to dial in that perfect feather on your acetylene flame or crank up the propane for a heavy heating job. Smooth action means you spend less time fiddling with your settings and more time burning metal.

Safety is the number one priority when handling fuel gases. A leaking valve is a hazard you can't afford. Swapping out your old, stiff, or leaking valve with the LW17-F is a quick and easy repair that restores positive shut-off and peace of mind. Whether you are running a heavy-duty cutting rig in a scrap yard or a precision torch in a fab shop, keeping your valves in top shape is part of being a pro. Grab a spare LW17-F for your toolbox so you are never stuck with a down torch.
