Sold as the FM 372, it accepts a 1\/4 inch RH male inlet fitting and delivers gas through a 5\/8 inch-18 RH female outlet fitting at a rated inlet pressure of 25 psig. The flow tube and outer tube are constructed from impact-resistant Lexan, making the unit durable enough for demanding shop environments. A licensed welding professional or qualified gas equipment technician is the typical installer. The cover tube incorporates built-in overpressure protection, and the regulator is pressure compensated to handle low-surge requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis flowmeter regulator is suited for industrial and general fabrication, light fabrication, structural steel fabrication, and repair and maintenance work. It supports three common shielding gases: carbon dioxide at 5-40 SCFH, argon at 5-50 SCFH, and helium at 20-150 SCFH. The unit is sized for bench or cart-mount cylinder setups where a compact, reliable flow measurement device is needed alongside a welding power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGas flow measurement in SCFH across three supported shielding gases\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlow tube and outer tube made of impact-resistant Lexan for severe-duty applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePressure compensated design minimizes flow surge at startup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCover tube includes built-in overpressure protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with MIG and TIG welding processes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch RH male NPT inlet and 5\/8 inch-18 RH female outlet fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style medium-duty flowmeter regulator for use with carbon dioxide, argon, and helium shielding gas cylinders in MIG and TIG welding setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified welding equipment technician or licensed gas professional. Always close the cylinder valve and bleed the regulator before disconnecting or connecting fittings. Inspect all inlet and outlet connections for proper thread engagement and use appropriate thread sealant only where specified by the manufacturer. Do not exceed the rated inlet pressure of 25 psig.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow Range (CO2)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-40 SCFH\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow Range (Argon)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-50 SCFH\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow Range (Helium)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20-150 SCFH\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25 psig\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Fitting\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch RH Male NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Fitting\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inch-18 RH Female\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Impact-resistant Lexan\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9.2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.86 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuty Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Medium Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VICTOR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1000-0182\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VICTOR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346311807282,"sku":"1000-0182","price":346.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310546344.jpg?v=1782077188","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/victor-1000-0182-flowmeter-regulator-medium-duty-mig-tig","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
