OVERVIEW

Victor 0960-0029: Precision Brass Adaptor for Fuel Systems

Upgrade your gas equipment connections with the Victor 0960-0029 Hose Connector, a premium brass adaptor engineered for seamless integration into oxy-fuel systems. This fitting is designed to convert a 1/4" NPT Male thread to a "B" Size (5/8"-18) Left-Hand Male outlet, bridging the gap between hard-piped systems or regulator bodies and flexible welding hoses. It is an indispensable tool for welders and fabricators who require reliable, leak-proof transitions in their gas supply lines.

Key Features and Safety
The distinction between fuel and oxygen lines is a cornerstone of welding safety. The Victor 0960-0029 utilizes Left-Hand threads for the hose connection, clearly marked and mechanically distinct to ensure it can only mate with fuel gas hoses. This prevents cross-connection errors that could lead to dangerous situations. The 1/4" NPT Male end features tapered threads that seal tightly against matching female ports, often found on manifolds, regulators, and machine torches.

Durability and Performance
Made from solid brass, this connector is built to last. Brass is the material of choice for gas fittings due to its spark resistance and durability. It resists deformation under tightening torque, ensuring that the sealing surfaces remain intact over repeated uses. Whether you are setting up a stationary cutting table or repairing a portable torch outfit, the Victor 0960-0029 delivers the performance you expect from a top-tier brand like Victor.

Applications
This adaptor is widely used in industrial settings for connecting bulk gas supply systems to individual workstations. It is also useful for adapting specialty equipment that uses NPT ports to standard "B" fittings, allowing for the use of readily available off-the-shelf hoses. Keep your operations running smoothly and safely with high-quality adaptors that meet the rigorous demands of the welding industry.

FAQ

One end is 1/4" NPT Male, and the other is "B" Size (5/8"-18) Left-Hand Male.

No, the "B" side has Left-Hand threads, which are specifically designed for fuel gases to prevent cross-connection with oxygen lines.

It is constructed from high-quality brass for durability and safety.

"B" size refers to the standard CGA 5/8"-18 thread connection used for most welding and cutting hoses.

No, this is a standard brass adaptor fitting and does not include an internal check valve or flashback arrestor.

It is compatible with fuel gases such as Acetylene, Propane, Propylene, and Natural Gas, provided the mating hose has the correct Left-Hand nut.

Yes, NPT tapered threads typically require PTFE tape or a suitable pipe thread sealant to ensure a leak-free seal.
