The Western Enterprises WES680-2 is a specialized inlet nut designed to meet the rigorous demands of high-pressure gas management systems. Manufactured to strict CGA V-1 specifications, this component serves as a critical interface between gas cylinders and regulation equipment. It is specifically engineered for CGA-680 connections, which are standard for inert gases such as Argon, Nitrogen, and Helium utilized in high-pressure environments ranging from 3000 to 5500 PSIG.<\/p>\n
Constructed from high-quality brass, the WES680-2 offers excellent mechanical strength and resistance to deformation under torque. The nut features a 1.040″-14 NGO Right-Hand Male thread profile, ensuring compatibility with standard CGA-680 cylinder valves and manifold connections. The 1-1\/8″ RC Hex design provides ample surface area for wrench engagement, facilitating secure installation and removal without slippage. With a length of 1.145 inches and a weight of 0.177 lbs, it is a robust yet compact solution for gas distribution assemblies.<\/p>\n
In industrial and laboratory settings, the integrity of gas connections is paramount for safety and process consistency. This nut is designed to work in conjunction with a mating nipple (sold separately) to create a gas-tight seal. It is suitable for use in welding operations, analytical laboratories, and industrial manufacturing processes where high-pressure inert gases are required. The product is UL listed where applicable and meets the necessary safety standards for compressed gas fittings.<\/p>\n
Professionals relying on precise gas delivery systems choose Western Enterprises for their commitment to quality and safety. The WES680-2 exemplifies this with its durable machining and reliable performance in high-stress pressure applications. Whether for cylinder changeouts or permanent manifold installations, this inlet nut provides the assurance needed for handling compressed inert gases safely.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"High-Pressure CGA-680 Connection Component The Western Enterprises WES680-2 is a specialized inlet nut designed to meet the rigorous demands of high-pressure gas management systems.
