OVERVIEW

Genuine Victor Replacement Flow Tube

The Victor 1015-0057 Marked Tube & Float is a critical replacement component designed for Victor flowmeters and regulator-flowmeter combinations. In the precise world of industrial gas regulation, the accuracy of your flow readings is paramount. Over time, flow tubes can become clouded, scratched, or even cracked due to accidental impact or exposure to harsh workshop environments. A compromised tube not only makes it difficult to read flow rates accurately but can also pose a safety hazard if the structural integrity is damaged. This genuine Victor part ensures that your equipment continues to operate at the high standards expected from the brand.

Multi-Gas Calibration

This specific flow tube is calibrated for three of the most common shielding and industrial gases: Argon, Helium, and Carbon Dioxide (CO2). The markings on the tube are designed to provide accurate readings for these specific gas densities. Using a tube calibrated for the wrong gas can lead to significant errors in flow rate, resulting in wasted gas or insufficient shielding coverage. The clear, high-contrast scale allows operators to set flow rates quickly and confidently, reducing setup time and ensuring consistency across welding operations.

Maintenance and Safety

Regular maintenance of gas equipment is essential for shop safety and efficiency. If you notice any spiderweb cracks, discoloration, or if the float ball becomes stuck or moves erratically, it is time to replace the tube. The Victor 1015-0057 is designed for easy installation, allowing maintenance personnel to swap out the old unit and restore the flowmeter to factory specifications with minimal downtime. This assembly includes both the marked tube and the corresponding float, ensuring that the two components are perfectly matched for accuracy.

Compatibility and Quality

As a genuine Victor product, this replacement tube guarantees fitment with compatible Victor flowmeter bodies. Unlike generic aftermarket parts that may suffer from poor tolerance or inferior materials, this tube is manufactured to the rigorous standards of Victor Technologies. Whether you are managing a large fabrication shop or a small repair facility, keeping spare flow tubes on hand is a proactive measure to prevent work stoppages. Trust in the quality of Victor parts to keep your gas delivery systems functioning smoothly and safely.

FAQ

This flow tube is calibrated for Argon, Helium, and Carbon Dioxide (CO2).

You should replace the tube if it is cracked, chipped, clouded, difficult to read, or if the float inside is stuck or damaged.

Yes, the Victor 1015-0057 comes as a set including both the marked tube and the correct float.

No, flow tubes are calibrated for the specific density of the gas. Using this tube for gases other than Argon, Helium, or CO2 will result in inaccurate flow readings.

Yes, this is a genuine Victor replacement part, ensuring proper fit and calibration for Victor equipment.

Refer to your specific regulator's manual, but generally, flowmeters are read at the center of the ball float or the top, depending on the specific calibration standard used by the manufacturer.

Accurate gas flow prevents weld defects like porosity (caused by too little gas) and turbulence (caused by too much gas), ensuring a strong and clean weld.
