OVERVIEW

Victor 0790-0292RP Inlet Assembly: Precision and Protection

The Victor 0790-0292RP Inlet Assembly is a critical replacement component designed for high-performance gas regulation systems. Engineered specifically for CGA-580 connections, this assembly serves as the primary interface between the high-pressure gas cylinder and the pressure regulator. It is compatible with inert gases such as Argon, Nitrogen, and Helium, making it a staple in TIG welding, MIG welding, and industrial purging applications. The assembly is manufactured to Victor's rigorous standards, ensuring a leak-proof seal and reliable operation under high-pressure conditions.

One of the standout technical features of this unit is the integrated sintered bronze filter. In gas distribution systems, particulate contamination is a leading cause of regulator failure. Small debris from the cylinder valve can lodge in the regulator seat, causing creep or complete failure. The 0790-0292RP mitigates this risk by trapping contaminants before they enter the regulator body. Additionally, the assembly features a handtight swivel nut. This ergonomic design allows operators to secure the connection without the use of a wrench, reducing the risk of over-tightening and thread damage while facilitating rapid cylinder changeovers in fast-paced industrial environments.

Constructed from high-quality brass components and a durable plastic grip, this inlet assembly is built to withstand the rigors of daily use. It is an OEM replacement part, guaranteeing perfect compatibility with Victor regulators that utilize a standard CGA-580 input. Whether for maintenance, repair, or upgrading an existing setup to a handtight configuration, the 0790-0292RP delivers the quality and safety professionals expect from the Victor brand.

FAQ

CGA-580 is the standard connection for inert gases, including Argon, Nitrogen, and Helium.

No, this assembly features a handtight design, allowing you to tighten it securely to the cylinder without tools.

Yes, it includes an integrated sintered bronze filter to trap debris and protect the regulator.

Yes, as long as the regulator body accepts the standard 1/4" NPT (check specific regulator thread size) inlet and you need a CGA-580 connection, this is a great upgrade.

It is rated for standard cylinder pressures associated with CGA-580, typically up to 3000 PSIG.

Yes, this is a genuine Victor 0790-0292RP replacement part.

The filter prevents dirt and particles from the cylinder from entering the regulator, which can damage the seat and cause leaks.

No, Oxygen cylinders use CGA-540. This CGA-580 assembly will not fit and should never be forced.
