5613-5215 - Victor 1/4 Inch Sintered Inlet Filter Repair Kit (6-Pack)

Essential Protection for Industrial Gas Regulators

The Victor 5613-5215 1/4" Filter is a critical maintenance component designed to safeguard the longevity and performance of your gas regulation equipment. Sold in a convenient pack of 6, these sintered metal filters are engineered to fit the inlet nipples of compatible Victor regulators. In industrial environments, gas cylinders can occasionally contain particulate matter, rust, or scale accumulated during transport and storage. Without proper filtration, these microscopic contaminants can enter the regulator body, leading to significant damage.

High-Performance Sintered Construction

Manufactured from high-quality sintered metal, these filters provide a robust barrier against debris while maintaining the necessary gas flow rates for your operations. The sintering process creates a porous structure that effectively traps contaminants before they reach the delicate seat assembly of the regulator. By preventing foreign objects from lodging between the seat and the nozzle, these filters play a vital role in preventing "creep"—a dangerous condition where delivery pressure rises when the torch valves are closed.

Cost-Effective Maintenance Solution

For facility managers and maintenance teams, keeping a stock of replacement filters is a best practice for minimizing downtime. A clogged filter can restrict flow, causing performance issues, while a missing filter invites equipment failure. This 6-pack ensures you have the necessary spares on hand for routine service intervals or emergency repairs. Whether you are managing a large fabrication shop or a mobile service fleet, investing in genuine Victor replacement parts like the 5613-5215 filter ensures your equipment operates within factory specifications and safety standards.

Installation and Compatibility

These 1/4-inch filters are designed for straightforward installation into the inlet nipple of the regulator. Regular inspection of the inlet filter is recommended every time a cylinder is changed. If the filter appears dark, clogged, or damaged, it should be replaced immediately to maintain optimal gas flow and equipment safety. Trust Josef Gas to supply the essential repair parts that keep your industrial gas systems running smoothly and safely.
