0960-0017 - Victor 0960-0017 Brass Bushing 3/8 NPT Male x 7/8-14 LH Male

Victor 0960-0017 Brass Bushing Overview

The Victor 0960-0017 is a high-quality brass bushing designed for professional gas distribution systems and welding manifolds. Engineered to meet strict industrial standards, this fitting serves as a critical interface between standard piping infrastructure and specific gas equipment connections. The unit features a 3/8-inch Male NPT thread on one end, allowing for installation into standard pipe fittings, manifold blocks, or regulator bodies. The opposing end is machined with a 7/8-inch Male Left-Hand (LH) thread, which is the standard dimension for many fuel gas connections, including CGA 510 style outlets.

Constructed from solid brass, this bushing offers excellent resistance to corrosion and sparking, making it safe for use with acetylene, propane, and other fuel gases. The left-hand thread designation is a crucial safety feature, preventing the accidental connection of oxygen or inert gas equipment to fuel gas lines. This physical barrier to cross-connection is essential for maintaining workplace safety in industrial environments.

Precision machining ensures that threads engage smoothly and seal effectively, minimizing the risk of leaks. Whether you are assembling a custom manifold, repairing a station outlet, or adapting a regulator, the Victor 0960-0017 provides the reliability and durability required for high-pressure gas service. It is compatible with a wide range of Victor oxy-fuel equipment and western brass manifold parts.
