22217 - Victor 22217 Brass Pressure Adjusting Screw for Trimline Regulators

Precision Replacement for Gas Control Systems

The ESAB 22217 Pressure Adjusting Screw is a critical replacement component designed specifically for the Victor/ESAB Trimline series of gas regulators. In the realm of industrial gas regulation, the integrity of every component within the regulator body is paramount for both safety and performance. This pressure adjusting screw acts as the primary interface between the operator and the internal diaphragm mechanism, allowing for the precise setting of delivery pressure.

Manufactured from high-quality brass, this screw is engineered to withstand the mechanical stresses of frequent adjustment and the environmental conditions often found in welding and industrial environments. Brass is selected for its excellent machinability, allowing for fine threading that provides smooth, granular control over the compression of the regulator's internal spring. Furthermore, brass offers inherent corrosion resistance, ensuring that the threads do not seize over time due to oxidation or exposure to atmospheric moisture.

When a pressure adjusting screw becomes bent, stripped, or worn, the ability to maintain a stable arc or consistent gas flow is compromised. The ESAB 22217 is the exact OEM specification, ensuring perfect thread engagement with the regulator bonnet. Using non-OEM parts in gas equipment can lead to thread mismatch, potential leaks, or the inability to reach maximum working pressures. By installing this genuine ESAB part, maintenance personnel can confidently restore the regulator to its original factory specifications, ensuring reliable operation for oxy-fuel cutting, heating, or welding applications.

This component is essential for MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) inventories where Victor Trimline regulators are in service. Proactive replacement of worn adjusting screws prevents downtime and extends the service life of the entire regulator assembly.
