Review on AGPtEK Argon CO2 Mig Tig Flow Meter Regulator CGA580: Ultimate Welding Companion by Kendrick Dooley

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Does not work with prefabricated (shielding gas fittings) welding hoses!

This regulator will not fit 5/8" - 18Rh hose ends. I purchased a standard MIG hose with connectors on each end but the regulator does not have a connection method. I did not want the factory connection to I could cut off use this regulator. I tried to find a brass fitting that would go from the reg to the ends of the hose but to no avail. I even called the seller but they didn't help., the barbed hose fittings The regulator had brass filings on the side, the coupling (which goes between the regulator and the barbed hose fitting) was a bit loose (pipe lube would probably work), and when you screwed it on it was a little wobbly (not quite cross-threaded, but not exactly either. To get this controller working (eagerly) but when I had so many problems right out of the box I sent the unit t back and bought it."8milelake Argon CO2 Mig Tig Cooking Sensor". Welds should be able to use barbed hose fittings and regular 5/8'-18RH welded hose fittings.
