0965-0004 - Victor Brass Swivel Fitting with Filter - 1/4 NPT Male

Reliable Gas Connections with Victor

The Victor 0965-0004 Swivel is a critical component for maintaining the integrity and safety of industrial gas systems. Manufactured from high-grade brass, this fitting is designed to withstand the rigors of daily use in welding, cutting, and fabrication environments. Its primary function is to provide a secure connection point that allows for movement, thereby reducing mechanical stress on hoses and regulators. By incorporating a swivel mechanism, it effectively prevents hose kinks and twists, which are common causes of flow restriction and premature hose failure.

One of the standout features of this specific model is the integrated filter. Gas supply lines, especially in industrial settings, can occasionally transport particulate matter such as dust, rust, or debris from cylinders and manifolds. If these contaminants reach sensitive equipment like regulators or flowmeters, they can damage internal seals and diaphragms, leading to leaks or inconsistent pressure. The built-in filter in the Victor 0965-0004 acts as a first line of defense, trapping these particles before they can cause harm. This simple addition can significantly extend the service life of your expensive gas control equipment.

The fitting features a 1/4-inch NPT Male connection, a standard size that ensures broad compatibility with a wide range of manifolds, regulators, and piping systems. The precision-machined threads ensure a tight, leak-proof seal when installed correctly with appropriate thread sealant. Whether you are setting up a new gas distribution system or performing maintenance on existing gear, choosing genuine Victor components ensures reliability and peace of mind. At Josef Gas, we recommend this swivel for any application where hose flexibility and equipment protection are priorities.

Installation is straightforward, and the robust brass construction offers excellent resistance to corrosion and physical impact. By investing in quality fittings like the Victor 0965-0004, you ensure that your gas delivery system operates smoothly, safely, and efficiently, minimizing downtime caused by equipment repairs or hose replacements.
