OVERVIEW

Precision Control for Thermal Spray Applications

The Victor 0320-0164 Feed Valve is a critical replacement component designed specifically for Victor powder torches. In the specialized field of thermal spraying and hardfacing, the consistency of the coating is directly dependent on the stability and accuracy of the powder delivery system. This feed valve serves as the gatekeeper, regulating the flow of metal alloy powders into the oxy-fuel stream where they are melted and propelled onto the workpiece. A worn or malfunctioning valve can lead to surging, sputtering, or uneven powder distribution, compromising the integrity of the surface treatment.

Manufactured to Victor's exacting industrial standards, this valve assembly is constructed from high-quality brass and durable materials capable of withstanding the rigors of heavy-duty shop environments. The internal geometry is engineered to prevent powder bridging and clogging, ensuring a smooth, continuous feed rate that operators can rely on for precision work. Whether you are building up worn shafts, applying corrosion-resistant coatings, or hardfacing agricultural implements, the 0320-0164 ensures your equipment operates at peak efficiency.

Maintenance of powder torch equipment is vital for safety and performance. Over time, abrasive metal powders can wear down internal valve components, leading to leaks or loss of flow control. Replacing the feed valve with this genuine OEM part restores the torch's original functionality without the need for complex modifications. It is designed for seamless integration with compatible Victor powder torch handles and attachments, providing a leak-proof seal and smooth mechanical operation.

Professionals in the MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) sector understand that using genuine parts is key to equipment longevity. The Victor 0320-0164 is not just a spare part; it is an investment in process reliability. By ensuring precise powder metering, this valve helps reduce material waste and rework, ultimately lowering the cost per foot of deposited material. It is an essential stock item for any workshop utilizing Victor oxy-fuel powder spray systems.
