Craftsman 313.544101 Two Phase Oxy- Acetylene Torches
Dorsum in 1979 I purchased a set of torches from the local Sears Roebuck. They've worked great all these years.
Well I went to use them the other mean solar day and I notices that the Acetylene regulator was leaking out of the back.
My questions are who made these torches for Sears and are parts available to rebuild the regulators?
I was under the impression that Harris fabricated them for Sears, if so does anybody know what series they are?Since they are over xxx years old and accept never been apart I think information technology would be a skillful idea to get through both regulators.
Thank you in accelerate for any help with my questions.
The Acetylene regulator Model Number is 313.543021 which is the aforementioned for the Oxygen regulator

Doug,
I started with the same torch set back in the seventies!
When I bought a Victor gear up, I passed mine onto my brother-inlaw and he was still using them the last time I visited.
The rust and corrosion on yours looks exactly how my one-time set looks.Regards,

You can contact these guys. They exercise a peachy job on rebuilding regs and gear. Quite a few guys hither have used them and had skilful results. HP O2 isn't something to mess with yourself. This is a job best left to those who know what they are doing and know the proper procedures for servicing O2 gear.

I have the same ready purchased new and the acetylene regulator went bad a couple years ago. Sent both regulators to regulator & torch repair and kits for the acetylene regulator are NLA. They did rebuild the O2 regulator and did a fine chore along with a couple of flowmeters I'd sent them.

The acetylene low pressure gauge is flakey - can that be replaced or am I better off but getting a new regulator? They are cheap on ebay.

Yes, gauges tin be replaced easily. All the LWS that I know of stock them and some of the farm and armada supply houses.

Re: Craftsman 313.544101 2 Stage Oxy- Acetylene Torches
I also have ane of these sets from 1979. I have lost some of the mixers that the tips actually spiral into. The mixer and so screws on the the torch handle. I cannot find the mixers or tips anywhere. The mixer size is kind of an odd ball size. The base of the mixer where it screws onto the handle is 22mm. Most mixers are 16mm or 22mm. Does anyone know which Harris model this craftsman model would equate to? Maybe a xix-6? Whatever help would be appreciated.
