Frequently asked questions
Are these washers safe for oxygen use?
Yes. These are specifically designed with non-flammable materials and a high-melting-point brass construction to ensure secure and safe operation in medical oxygen environments.
Do these washers prevent gas leaks?
Yes. The design features an integrated rubber ring inside the brass housing, which creates a reliable, airtight, and leak-free seal between your regulator and the oxygen cylinder.
Is this compatible with my CGA 870 regulator?
This washer is specifically engineered as a precision replacement part for CGA 870 style oxygen regulators, ensuring an exact fit for standard medical equipment.
Can I use this for home care oxygen setups?
Absolutely. While they are ideal for clinical and healthcare facilities, they are also perfectly suited for home care setups that utilize CGA 870 style oxygen delivery systems.
Will this fit other regulator types?
This specific component is designed exclusively for CGA 870 style equipment. It is not recommended to use this for other styles of regulators, as it may not provide a safe or secure connection.
Why is brass used instead of other materials?
Brass is used because it provides a higher melting point compared to standard materials, which enhances thermal safety at the connection point between the regulator and the pressurized cylinder.
Does this washer come with the rubber ring included?
Yes, each washer comes as a complete unit featuring the durable brass housing with the integrated black rubber sealing ring ready for immediate installation.
How often should I replace these washers?
While the frequency depends on usage, these should be replaced whenever you notice the existing washer is worn, damaged, or showing signs of a poor seal to maintain proper safety protocols for your oxygen delivery system.
Are these suitable for anesthesia systems?
Yes, this component is designed for critical respiratory applications, including anesthesia, suction, and general medical oxygen delivery systems.
Is the brass finish durable?
The washer is constructed with a polished brass outer ring designed for the mechanical stresses of a yoke connection, offering a robust interface for reliable, long-term performance.
