Will this regulator work on a disposable oxygen tank?

[Lenny2884]

Just bought the oxygenation wand and stone from Williams and failed to realize that I needed a regulator to attached to the disposable oxygen tank? I did a lot of searching and it seems no one carries these regulators anymore for less than $50. Would this regulator work on a disposable oxygen tank purchased from Lowes?

No, very different fitting.

No, and it won't work on the common welding type oxygen cylinders either. That regulator is designed for use on medical type oxygen tanks and those can only be filled with a prescription IIRC.

Disposable oxygen tanks are reverse threaded. You will need to make sure that you have the right fitting.

We have just discovered a lot of oxygen regulators that fit 1.4 oz. disposable left hand thread oxygen tanks. See the link below.
