9728B65 - Oxweld V-24 Heavy Duty Oxygen Lance Valve 3/8 Inch

Industrial Grade Control for Thermal Lancing

The ESAB Oxweld V-24 Lance Valve (SKU: 9728B65) is a premier component designed specifically for the rigorous demands of thermal lancing and heavy-duty oxygen cutting applications. In industrial environments such as steel mills, foundries, and scrap demolition yards, the reliability of gas control equipment is paramount. The V-24 valve is engineered to handle high-volume oxygen flow with precision and safety, serving as the critical interface between the oxygen supply and the lance pipe.

Constructed from high-quality, durable brass and bronze alloys, this valve is built to withstand the extreme heat, physical impact, and corrosive atmospheres often found in heavy industrial settings. The 3/8-inch connection size is a standard specification for many lancing setups, allowing for seamless integration with existing hose and holder assemblies. The valve mechanism itself is designed for positive shut-off, preventing dangerous leaks when the equipment is not in active use. This is particularly important in oxygen-enriched environments where safety protocols are stringent.

For maintenance and operations managers, the Oxweld V-24 represents a long-term investment in operational uptime. Its robust design minimizes the frequency of replacements due to wear and tear. Furthermore, the lever-action mechanism provides operators with immediate response control, allowing for the rapid modulation of oxygen flow required to pierce through materials like reinforced concrete, cast iron, and thick steel slabs. When sourcing components for critical MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) inventories, the ESAB Oxweld V-24 stands out as a specification-compliant, high-performance choice for gas distribution systems.

Whether utilized in emergency maintenance to remove seized pins or in production environments for cutting risers and gates, this valve delivers consistent performance. It ensures that the thermal energy generated by the burning bar is managed effectively, optimizing consumable usage and reducing operational costs associated with wasted oxygen.
