OVERVIEW

Keep Your Oxygen Setup Secure

When you're out in the shop or on the job site, a stripped or damaged regulator nut can bring your work to a grinding halt. The Western Enterprises 177 is the standard replacement nut for your oxygen regulator or pigtail. If you've got an oxygen tank (CGA-540), this is the nut that connects your equipment to the valve. Made from heavy-duty brass, it's built to take the abuse of daily cylinder changes and wrenching without stripping out or cracking.

Safety is the number one priority when handling high-pressure oxygen. This nut features the correct right-hand threads to ensure you never accidentally hook it up to a fuel gas cylinder. It's designed to work perfectly with a standard oxygen nipple, pulling it tight against the cylinder valve to create a secure, leak-free seal. Don't risk leaks with worn-out fittings; swapping out a beat-up nut is a cheap and easy way to ensure your gas delivery system is safe and efficient.

This part is a must-have for any welder's spare parts kit. Whether you are fixing an old Victor, Harris, or Miller regulator, or building a new hose assembly for a manifold, the Western 177 fits the bill. It's the industry standard for a reason—simple, tough, and reliable. Just pair it with the correct nipple, tighten it down with your cylinder wrench, and you're ready to burn.

FAQ

This nut is designed for CGA-540 connections, which is the standard for industrial Oxygen.

No, this product is the nut only. The corresponding nipple (typically Part #17) must be purchased separately.

The nut is machined from solid brass, providing excellent strength and spark resistance.

This is a right-hand thread. Oxygen fittings are always right-hand to distinguish them from fuel gases.

No. Argon and Nitrogen typically use CGA-580, and CO2 uses CGA-320. This CGA-540 nut will not fit those valves.

A standard cylinder wrench or a smooth-jaw adjustable wrench is recommended to avoid damaging the brass hex.

It is rated for standard oxygen cylinder pressures, typically up to 3000 PSI.

Yes, as long as your regulator is set up for Oxygen (CGA-540), this nut is the standard replacement part.
