OVERVIEW

Precision Replacement for Heavy-Duty Oxy-Fuel Systems

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.

FAQ

The mixer throat is the internal chamber where oxygen and fuel gas combine. It uses a venturi effect to mix the gases thoroughly before they reach the welding or heating tip.

This mixer throat is designed specifically for the Victor W-17 heavy-duty torch handle and compatible assemblies.

Signs of wear include an unstable flame, frequent popping or backfiring, difficulty adjusting the flame to neutral, or visible damage/clogging that cannot be cleaned.

Yes, this is a genuine OEM replacement part manufactured by ESAB/Victor, ensuring the correct specifications for your equipment.

While minor soot can sometimes be cleaned, physical damage, deep scoring, or heavy carbon buildup often requires replacement to ensure safety and performance.

The #200 Mixer Throat is machined from high-quality brass, chosen for its durability and resistance to high temperatures.

Typically, the mixer throat is sold as the metal component itself. It is recommended to check your specific assembly diagram to see if O-rings need to be ordered separately.

This part is for the mixer assembly, which is primarily used for welding and heating attachments on the W-17 handle. Cutting attachments usually have their own internal mixing mechanisms.
