The ESAB/Victor #200 Mixer Throat (SKU: 998830) is a critical replacement component designed specifically for the industry-standard W-17 heavy-duty welding torch handles. In oxy-fuel applications, the mixer is the heart of the system, responsible for safely and efficiently combining oxygen and fuel gas (such as acetylene, propane, or propylene) to create a workable flame. The throat serves as the venturi chamber where this mixing occurs under controlled pressure.
Over time, mixer throats can become clogged with carbon deposits, damaged by heat, or worn down from regular use and cleaning. A compromised throat can lead to unstable flames, poor heat output, and increased risk of flashbacks or backfires. This genuine OEM part ensures that your equipment maintains the original manufacturer's specifications for safety and performance. Manufactured from high-quality brass, it offers excellent thermal conductivity and resistance to oxidation, ensuring a long service life even in demanding industrial environments.
This component is essential for MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) professionals managing a fleet of oxy-fuel equipment. By replacing just the throat rather than the entire mixer assembly or torch handle, facilities can significantly reduce maintenance costs while ensuring their welding and heating tools remain operational. It is engineered to fit seamlessly into the W-17 assembly, guaranteeing a leak-free seal and precise gas flow characteristics.
