The Victor 0704-0004 Back Plug is a critical replacement component engineered specifically for Victor heavy-duty gas regulators. As a genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part, it is manufactured to the exact specifications required to maintain the high-pressure integrity of Victor's industrial gas control devices. This component is typically located at the rear of the regulator body, serving as a sealing element that contains internal pressures and protects the internal mechanisms from environmental contaminants.
Constructed from high-quality brass, the 0704-0004 offers excellent machinability and resistance to deformation under pressure. Brass is the material of choice for oxygen and fuel gas service due to its non-sparking properties and compatibility with various industrial gases. The threading on this back plug is precision-cut to ensure a tight, secure engagement with the regulator housing, minimizing the risk of thread galling or cross-threading during installation. Proper seating of this plug is essential for the safe operation of the regulator, as it often retains internal springs or valve components depending on the specific regulator model architecture.
Technicians repairing Victor regulators must ensure that all replacement parts, including the back plug, meet the rigorous safety standards set by the manufacturer. Using the 0704-0004 ensures that the pressure boundaries of the device remain uncompromised. When replacing this part, it is recommended to inspect the mating threads on the regulator body for any signs of wear or damage. This part is identified by the SKU 0704-0004 and is a direct replacement for the original factory-installed plug, ensuring that flow characteristics and pressure ratings are maintained post-repair.
In industrial MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) settings, maintaining a stock of essential regulator parts like the 0704-0004 allows for immediate refurbishment of critical welding and cutting equipment. This minimizes downtime and ensures that safety protocols regarding gas distribution equipment are strictly adhered to. The plug is supplied as a single unit, ready for installation in compatible Victor regulator assemblies.
