The Victor 0255-0050 is a specialized protective accessory designed to safeguard pressure gauges used on industrial gas regulators. Manufactured from high-density, impact-resistant rubber, this boot is engineered to fit standard 2-inch diameter gauges commonly found on Victor heavy-duty and medium-duty regulator outfits. In industrial MRO contexts, the integrity of pressure monitoring equipment is paramount for safety and process consistency. Gauges are often the most vulnerable component of a gas control system; the 0255-0050 serves as a critical first line of defense against mechanical shock, vibration, and accidental impact that can compromise gauge calibration or shatter the lens.
Installation of the boot is straightforward due to its pliable rubber construction and open-back design, allowing it to be slipped over the gauge casing without the need to disconnect the gauge from the regulator body. The material properties of the boot provide excellent resistance to common workshop contaminants, including oils and mild solvents, ensuring a long service life even in harsh fabrication environments. By absorbing kinetic energy from drops or collisions, the boot minimizes the transfer of force to the delicate bourdon tube mechanism inside the gauge.
This component is identified by the SKU 0255-0050 and is also referenced in some catalogs with GE part number #614A527P21, indicating its use as an OEM replacement or specified part in broader industrial supply chains. It is an essential preventative maintenance item for any facility utilizing oxy-fuel cutting, welding, or purging equipment, significantly reducing the frequency of gauge failures and the associated downtime required for repairs.
