0303-0495 - Victor High Pressure Oxygen Tube for CA2460 Series

Genuine Victor Replacement High Pressure Oxygen Tube

The Victor 0303-0495 is a critical replacement component designed specifically for the maintenance and repair of Victor CA2460 series cutting attachments. In the realm of oxy-fuel cutting, the integrity of the equipment is paramount not only for performance but for operator safety. This High Pressure (H.P.) Oxygen Tube serves as the conduit for the cutting oxygen stream, delivering the high-velocity jet required to oxidize and sever metal after the preheat phase. Manufactured to Victor's exacting OEM specifications, this tube ensures a precise fit, proper alignment, and leak-free sealing within the torch assembly.

Constructed from high-grade stainless steel, the 0303-0495 tube is engineered to withstand the rigorous internal pressures associated with oxygen cutting processes. Unlike generic aftermarket alternatives, genuine Victor parts undergo stringent quality control to verify material consistency and dimensional accuracy. This is particularly important for the H.P. tube, as any imperfection in the internal bore can cause turbulence in the oxygen stream, leading to poor cut quality, while external dimensional errors can stress the torch body or lead to dangerous gas leaks. The tube is pre-bent to the exact geometry required for the CA2460, CA2461, and CA2462 models, facilitating a straightforward installation process for qualified repair technicians.

Maintaining the condition of gas distribution tubes is essential for the longevity of the cutting attachment. Over time, or due to accidental impact, these external tubes can become dented, kinked, or cracked. A compromised tube restricts flow, reducing the cutting capacity of the torch, and poses a significant safety hazard if the structural integrity is breached. By replacing a damaged tube with the Victor 0303-0495, users restore the factory-specified performance of their equipment. This component is an essential stock item for industrial maintenance departments and repair facilities servicing Victor gas equipment, ensuring that downtime is minimized and safety standards are upheld.

Key Technical Considerations:

• Material Compatibility: Stainless steel construction prevents oxidation and ensures compatibility with high-purity oxygen.


• Geometric Precision: Exact bend radius prevents stress on the torch head and valve body connections.


• Safety Compliance: Using OEM parts maintains the UL/safety listing of the original equipment.
