48R294 - SURFOX Replacement Electrolyte Suction Straws (10-Pack)

Maintain Peak Performance with Walter SURFOX Replacement Straws

The Walter 48-R-294 Electrolyte Straws are essential maintenance components designed specifically for the Walter SURFOX line of electrochemical weld cleaning systems. In the precision world of stainless steel passivation and weld cleaning, the consistent delivery of electrolyte fluid is paramount to achieving a uniform finish. These straws serve as the critical link within the fluid delivery system, ensuring that the cleaning solution is drawn effectively from the reservoir or cartridge and delivered to the application wand without interruption.

Over time, the internal tubing and straws of any chemical application system can become compromised. Exposure to dried electrolyte crystals, accidental crimping during tank changes, or general wear and tear can restrict flow. A restricted flow rate not only slows down the cleaning process but can also lead to uneven passivation or overheating of the wand tip due to lack of lubrication and cooling from the fluid. By replacing the electrolyte straw at the first sign of wear or clogging, operators can restore the machine to its factory-specified flow rates, ensuring efficient and safe operation.

This package contains 10 replacement straws, providing a robust supply for busy workshops and industrial environments. Manufactured from high-quality, chemically resistant plastics, these OEM parts are engineered to withstand the acidic nature of SURFOX electrolyte solutions without degrading or becoming brittle over time. Using genuine Walter parts guarantees compatibility and leak-free performance, protecting your investment in the SURFOX system and ensuring that your weld cleaning operations continue to meet the highest standards of quality and safety.

Technical Application

These straws are typically used as the suction or dip tubes within the electrolyte container assembly. Proper installation ensures that the pump mechanism can prime correctly and maintain pressure. Regular inspection of these straws is recommended as part of a preventative maintenance schedule for all SURFOX units.
