OVERVIEW

Reliable Fuel Gas Control for Professional Welders

Safety and durability are paramount when handling fuel gases like Acetylene. The Western Enterprises WES206 Brass Body Valve is built to give professional welders peace of mind. Whether you are setting up a new gas distribution manifold in your shop or replacing a worn-out valve on a station drop, this high-quality brass valve delivers the performance you need. Its solid brass construction stands up to the daily wear and tear of the shop environment, resisting corrosion and ensuring smooth operation every time you turn the knob.

Designed specifically for fuel gases, this valve features Left-Hand threads on the outlet. This is a crucial safety feature that ensures you never accidentally connect an oxygen hose to your fuel source, preventing potentially dangerous cross-connections. The outlet accepts standard B-Size (9/16"-18 UNF) nuts, making it compatible with the vast majority of standard welding fuel hoses. The inlet side features a robust 1/4" NPT Male thread, allowing for easy and secure mounting to pipes or regulators.

With a pressure rating of 200 PSIG, the WES206 handles standard fuel gas pressures with ease. It is an essential component for maintaining a safe and efficient oxy-fuel cutting or welding setup. Trust in Western Enterprises' reputation for quality gas equipment to keep your shop running smoothly and safely.
