0303-0017 - Victor Replacement HP Oxygen Tube 16.68-Inch

Genuine Victor High Pressure Oxygen Tube Replacement

The Victor 0303-0017 is a specialized High Pressure (H.P.) Oxygen Tube designed as a direct replacement component for compatible Victor cutting torches. Measuring 16.68 inches in length, this tube is a critical element of the torch assembly, responsible for delivering the high-velocity stream of pure oxygen required to oxidize and sever metal during the cutting process. Manufactured to Victor's exacting OEM specifications, this part ensures that the structural integrity and safety standards of the torch are maintained after repair.

In oxy-fuel cutting, the high-pressure oxygen line is subjected to significant stress and must maintain a perfect seal to prevent hazardous leaks. Over time, torch tubes can become damaged due to rough handling, impact, or thread wear during maintenance. Replacing a damaged tube with a genuine Victor 0303-0017 ensures that the internal geometry of the torch remains correct, preventing turbulence in the oxygen stream which can degrade cut quality. The tube is constructed from high-grade materials resistant to oxidation and deformation, ensuring a long service life even in demanding industrial environments.

Technicians repairing gas apparatus understand the importance of using OEM components for the high-pressure side of the system. This tube connects the valve body to the torch head, bypassing the mixer used for the preheat flames. Its precise length and threading are essential for a tension-free assembly that does not stress the silver-brazed joints or mechanical connections of the torch body. When installing this component, it is crucial to ensure all mating surfaces are clean and free of oil or grease to prevent oxygen hazards.

By choosing the Victor 0303-0017, maintenance personnel can confidently restore a torch to factory performance levels. Whether performing a routine overhaul or repairing a specific failure, this tube provides the reliability expected from Victor Technologies. It is compatible with specific heavy-duty torch models that utilize the 16.68-inch tube configuration, making it an essential spare part for tool cribs and repair shops managing a fleet of oxy-fuel equipment.
