134Z18 - ESAB R-2200 Regulator Pressure Adjusting Screw

Restore Precision to Your ESAB R-2200 Regulator

The ESAB 134Z18 Pressure Adjusting Screw is a critical replacement component designed exclusively for the renowned R-2200 Series Regulators. In the world of industrial gas control, the ability to set and maintain precise outlet pressure is paramount for both safety and process quality. The pressure adjusting screw is the primary interface between the operator and the regulator's internal diaphragm mechanism, allowing for the compression of the adjusting spring to set the desired delivery pressure.

Over time, heavy industrial use can lead to wear on the threads of the adjusting screw or the handle mechanism. A stripped or bent screw can result in jerky pressure adjustments, the inability to reach maximum pressure, or difficulty in backing off pressure safely. By installing this genuine ESAB replacement part, you ensure that your R-2200 regulator continues to operate with the smoothness and reliability it was designed for. This part is manufactured to the exact tolerances required by ESAB's engineering standards, ensuring a perfect fit without binding or cross-threading.

The R-2200 series is known for its robust construction and high-flow capabilities, often used in heavy-duty cutting, heating, and welding applications. Maintaining these regulators with OEM parts like the 134Z18 screw is essential for shop safety. Using non-standard or makeshift screws can compromise the regulator's pressure relief integrity or damage the bonnet. This replacement screw restores the tactile feedback and control necessary for fine-tuning gas flow, whether you are working with oxygen, acetylene, or inert shielding gases.

Installation is straightforward for qualified equipment repair technicians. Simply remove the tension from the regulator, unscrew the old assembly, and thread in the new 134Z18 screw. It is an affordable solution to extend the service life of your premium gas equipment, avoiding the cost of a complete regulator replacement.
