OVERVIEW

Precision Brass Adaptor for Oxygen Service

The Western Enterprises Oxygen Hose Adaptor (SKU: 123) is a critical component for industrial gas distribution systems, laboratories, and welding setups. Engineered with precision, this adaptor facilitates the transition between rigid piping systems and flexible welding hoses or downstream equipment. It features a 1/4-inch National Pipe Taper (NPT) Male thread on one end and a B-Size 9/16-inch-18 Unified Fine (UNF) Female Swivel on the other. The NPT thread ensures a tight, permanent seal when connected to manifolds, regulators, or hard piping, while the swivel nut allows for the convenient attachment of hoses without inducing torque or twisting stresses on the line.

Constructed from high-grade brass, this fitting is designed to withstand the rigors of industrial environments. Brass is the material of choice for oxygen service due to its non-sparking properties and resistance to corrosion, ensuring longevity and safety. The fitting is rated for a maximum working pressure of 200 PSIG, making it suitable for standard line pressures found in oxy-fuel cutting and welding operations. The threads are machined to the highest standards, ensuring compatibility with standard CGA 022 connections and preventing leaks that could compromise safety or efficiency.

Safety is paramount in gas handling, and this adaptor adheres to industry standards for Oxygen service. It utilizes Right-Hand (RH) threads for the B-Size connection, a standard safety measure to distinguish oxygen lines from fuel gas lines (which typically use Left-Hand threads). This distinct threading prevents accidental cross-connections, reducing the risk of hazardous mixing of gases. The 11/16-inch hex body provides ample surface area for wrenching, allowing technicians to secure the fitting firmly. Whether you are configuring a new gas manifold system or replacing worn components in an existing setup, the Western Enterprises adaptor delivers the reliability and performance required for professional applications.

This product is manufactured in the United States, ensuring adherence to strict quality control measures. It is an essential inventory item for facilities maintenance, welding shops, and laboratories requiring precise gas control and distribution.

FAQ

This adaptor features a 1/4" NPT Male thread on one end and a B-Size 9/16"-18 UNF Female Swivel on the other.

No, this adaptor is designed for Oxygen service and features Right-Hand (RH) threads. Fuel gases typically require Left-Hand (LH) threads to prevent dangerous cross-connections.

The adaptor is rated for a maximum working pressure of 200 PSIG.

Yes, the female end features a swivel nut, allowing you to attach hoses or equipment easily without twisting the line.

It is manufactured from solid brass, ensuring durability and compatibility with oxygen service.

The body of the fitting features an 11/16" hex, which can be tightened with a standard 11/16" wrench.

According to the manufacturer specifications, this specific item is not UL listed.

No, this is a low-pressure adaptor (200 PSIG max) intended for use after the regulator or on low-pressure manifolds, not for full cylinder pressure.
