Selected User Reviews For VICTOR Flowmeter Regulator for Argon, Argon/CO2 and Helium. For TIG and MIG Welders, Model: GRF400-581 with 5 Feet Hose
When I got the AirGas regulator, I noticed that it was leaking out of the tank from the time it was bought. As far as I know, this has never leaked and I have used it for argon on my tig welder several times. I can easily read it from where I'm welding, and it is easy to adjust. Adjusting the welding cart does not require me to walk around it all the time.
The flow regulator is of the highest quality. My welder's flow of argon/co2 can be controlled on a very fine scale, so I easily adjust how much of each flows through it. This regulator is a lot better than the cheap regulators I used to buy from a certain discount tool store that broke after just two rolls of welding wire. Although I'm a hobbyist, this is easily twice as expensive as the cheap alternatives, so I would definitely recommend it to you.
It connected to my 75/25 tank no problem and hooked up to my MiG welder with no problems. Sets CFH easily and marks are easy to read in intervals of 5 cfh, which makes setting the CFH a breeze.
Since it's a Victor, it is obviously excellent. A simple to use flowmeter, easy to adjust and simple to setup. Don't have to worry about over-sensitivity like cheap Chinese.
There are no issues with the valve and the connection is perfect. The window is clear, too. The additional cost is worth it.
This is an American product. The chassis is made up of full brass with the I found it to be very accurate and stable. A few Chinese copies have been tried, but the results have been mixed. advice would be to spend your money up front so that it will last and won't be a burden in the long run. Happy with my purchase.
Despite its size, this little regulator is quite sturdy. It is easy to use and is compact. My welding machine's new regulator is much nicer than the one that came with it.
I am quite satisfied with the way it has worked.
