0790-0292RP - Victor CGA-580 Handtight Regulator Inlet Nut and Nipple Assembly with Filter

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.
