The Victor 0970-0005 is a premium brass swivel fitting designed for high-performance gas manifold systems and industrial gas distribution applications. Engineered by Victor, a leader in gas equipment, this component serves a critical role in connecting pigtails to manifolds or regulators. Its primary function is to provide a flexible, stress-reducing connection that accommodates movement and prevents the kinking of hoses or copper pigtails, which is essential for maintaining safe and consistent gas flow in industrial environments.
A standout feature of this swivel is its integrated filter. In gas distribution, particulate matter—such as dust, dirt, or metallic shavings—can be catastrophic to downstream equipment. Debris entering a high-pressure regulator can damage the seat, leading to creep or failure. The 0970-0005's built-in filter acts as a first line of defense, trapping contaminants before they can enter sensitive components. This simple addition significantly extends the service life of regulators and flowmeters, reducing maintenance costs and downtime.
Constructed from high-quality brass, this fitting offers excellent resistance to corrosion and is suitable for a wide range of non-corrosive industrial gases. The 1/4 inch NPT threading ensures compatibility with standard pipe fittings found in most North American manifold systems. Whether you are assembling a new gas bank or replacing worn components on an existing CGA 510 or CGA 580 setup, the Victor 0970-0005 provides the reliability and precision required for professional applications.
