0252-0040 - Victor Circle Cutting Guide Rod Replacement

Precision Component for Oxy-Fuel Applications

The Victor 0252-0040 Radius Rod Assembly is an essential replacement component designed to maintain the high standards of precision expected from Victor oxy-fuel equipment. In the realm of thermal cutting, geometric accuracy is paramount, particularly when fabricating flanges, circular cover plates, or pipe penetrations. This radius rod serves as the structural backbone of a circle cutting attachment, connecting the center point pivot to the cutting torch. By providing a rigid, fixed distance from the center, it enables the operator to execute perfectly concentric cuts that freehand techniques simply cannot replicate.

Manufactured to Victor's rigorous OEM specifications, this assembly ensures seamless compatibility with existing Victor circle cutting guides. The use of non-OEM parts in precision guides can often lead to loose tolerances or poor fitment, resulting in ovals rather than circles. The 0252-0040 is engineered from durable materials capable of withstanding the harsh thermal environment of oxy-fuel cutting, resisting warping and corrosion that can occur in heavy industrial settings. Whether utilized in a structural steel shop, a shipyard, or a general fabrication facility, this radius rod is critical for maintaining the operational integrity of your cutting setup.

For industrial MRO procurement, ensuring that cutting crews have access to straight, undamaged radius rods is a key factor in quality control. A bent or damaged rod can introduce wobble or drift into the cut path, necessitating costly grinding and rework. By stocking the genuine Victor 0252-0040, facilities ensure that their cutting operations remain efficient and that finished parts meet strict dimensional tolerances without secondary processing.

Technical Reliability

Victor Technologies has long been a leader in gas equipment, and this component reflects their commitment to quality. The assembly is designed for easy adjustment, allowing operators to quickly set the desired radius and lock it in place for repeatable production work. It is an indispensable tool for any professional relying on Victor torches for complex shape cutting.
