0910-0069 - Victor 1/4 NPT Male to 1/8 NPT Male Brass Reducer Fitting

Reliable Gas System Adaptation with Victor Brass Fittings

The Victor 0910-0069 Reducer is an essential component for professionals maintaining or assembling industrial gas distribution systems. Manufactured from high-quality brass, this fitting is designed to withstand the rigors of daily use in welding, cutting, and fabrication environments. Brass is the material of choice for these applications due to its excellent resistance to corrosion and its non-sparking properties, which are critical when handling flammable gases. This specific reducer features a 1/4-inch NPT Male thread on one end and steps down to a 1/8-inch NPT Male thread on the other, allowing for the seamless connection of components with differing port sizes.

In the context of gas manifolds and regulator assemblies, precision is paramount. A poor fit can lead to dangerous leaks or pressure inconsistencies. Victor's manufacturing process ensures that the threads on the 0910-0069 are cut to strict tolerances, providing a tight and secure engagement with mating parts. Whether you are adapting a gauge to a regulator body, connecting a flowmeter, or configuring a custom manifold setup, this reducing nipple provides the structural integrity required for high-pressure gas service.

Installation is straightforward, requiring standard wrenches and appropriate thread sealant (such as PTFE tape approved for gas service) to ensure a leak-proof seal. The hexagonal body design allows for easy tightening without slipping, ensuring that the fitting can be securely torqued into place. By choosing genuine Victor parts, operators ensure compatibility and safety within their gas delivery infrastructure, minimizing downtime caused by component failure.

This fitting is versatile and can be used in various pneumatic and hydraulic applications beyond just welding gases, provided the media is compatible with brass. It is a staple item for any MRO inventory, ensuring that technicians have the right adapter on hand to solve plumbing mismatches quickly and effectively.
