OVERVIEW

Genuine ESAB 16Z56 Throat Mixed Gas W-26 #150

Maintain the integrity and performance of your industrial oxy-fuel equipment with the ESAB 16Z56 Throat Mixed Gas W-26 #150. This component is a critical internal part designed specifically for the Oxweld W-26 series torches, a line renowned for its heavy-duty capabilities in welding and heating applications. As a genuine OEM part, this throat ensures that your torch meets the rigorous safety and performance standards established by ESAB.

The "throat" in an oxy-fuel mixer or injector plays a vital role in the Venturi effect, which is responsible for drawing the fuel gas into the stream of oxygen at the correct ratio. Over time, these internal components can suffer from wear, carbon buildup, or heat damage, leading to inefficient flame characteristics, potential flashbacks, or unstable operation. Replacing the throat with the correct #150 size ensures that your gas flow rates remain calibrated, providing the precise mixed gas delivery required for optimal heat output and flame control.

Manufactured from high-quality brass, the 16Z56 is engineered to withstand the thermal stresses and corrosive nature of combustion gases. Its precision threading and machined tolerances guarantee a leak-free seal within the torch body, which is essential for operator safety. Whether you are performing maintenance on a production line torch or repairing a field unit, using authentic ESAB parts like the 16Z56 eliminates the guesswork associated with aftermarket components.

This specific throat is designated for "Mixed Gas" applications, indicating its suitability for specific fuel gas setups utilized with the W-26 platform. By ensuring your mixing assembly is functioning correctly, you maximize fuel efficiency and weld quality. Trust Josef Gas to supply the authentic components you need to keep your ESAB and Oxweld equipment running at peak efficiency.

FAQ

The throat is a component of the torch's mixer or injector assembly. It creates the necessary restriction and flow path to mix oxygen and fuel gas properly via the Venturi effect.

This part is specifically designed for the Oxweld/ESAB W-26 series torches.

The #150 refers to the drill size or flow capacity rating of the throat, ensuring it matches the specific gas flow requirements of the torch setup.

Yes, this is a genuine OEM part manufactured by ESAB (formerly under the Oxweld brand).

This throat is labeled for 'Mixed Gas' applications within the W-26 system. Always consult your torch manual to ensure compatibility with your specific fuel gas (e.g., acetylene vs. alternate fuels).

Signs of wear include an unstable flame, flashbacks, popping noises, or an inability to adjust the flame to a neutral setting.

It is machined from high-quality brass for durability and resistance to heat and corrosion.

Typically, the throat is sold as a standalone metal component. O-rings or seals usually need to be ordered separately if required for your specific assembly.
