About WEKSLER

Weksler is a manufacturer of pressure and temperature instrumentation with a history dating to the early 20th century. The brand is known for pressure gauges, thermometers, and related accessories used in industrial process, HVAC, water treatment, and fluid power applications. 3G Electric supplies Weksler instrumentation accessories, with current catalog emphasis on pressure gauge snubbers and pigtail siphons. These are the components that sit between the process and the gauge, protecting the instrument from pressure pulsations, surges, and high-temperature media.

The snubber line covers two operating principles. Filter-type snubbers use a porous element to dampen pressure fluctuations; the units 3G Electric carries are available in brass or stainless steel with FNPT or NPT connections, rated to 1,500 psi maximum, and configured for air, oil, or water service. Piston-type snubbers use a moving piston to absorb pulsations; the catalog includes a stainless steel model with NPT connection and three pistons, intended for corrosive gases. Pigtail siphons are formed tubes that create a condensate barrier between the process and the gauge, protecting the instrument from high-temperature media. The siphons 3G Electric stocks are available in steel or iron, with 1/4 in or 1/2 in NPT connections, 180-degree coils, lengths of 5 3/8 in or 7 1/4 in, and maximum internal pressure ratings of 500 psi or 1,000 psi for water service.

For technical buyers, the relevant selection variables are straightforward: process medium (air, oil, water, corrosive gas), wetted materials (brass, stainless steel, steel, iron), connection type and size (FNPT or NPT, 1/4 in or 1/2 in), maximum pressure rating, and whether the application calls for pulsation damping or thermal isolation. Filter-type snubbers are typically specified where the goal is to smooth rapid pressure fluctuations that would otherwise cause gauge pointer flutter and premature wear. Piston-type snubbers are selected for higher-viscosity or corrosive media where a porous filter element may not be suitable. Pigtail siphons are used where the process temperature exceeds the gauge's rated limit and a condensate leg is needed to bring the media temperature down before it reaches the instrument.

3G Electric supports the Weksler line as a distributor with global shipping. The catalog includes multiple SKUs across snubber and siphon families, with manufacturer part numbers and specifications listed for each item. Buyers can reference MPNs such as WG41, BW42, A05E, WG42, SW42, RS7, and others when requesting quotes. 3G Electric provides logistics support for international orders, and the product data is structured to help maintenance and procurement teams match the correct accessory to the gauge, process medium, and pressure rating already in service.

Common Applications

  • Pneumatic systems — Weksler filter-type snubber in brass with FNPT connections, rated to 1,500 psi, for damping air pressure fluctuations.
  • Hydraulic and lubrication systems — Weksler stainless steel filter-type snubber with NPT connections for oil service, protecting gauges from pressure surges.
  • Water treatment and process water — Weksler brass or stainless steel filter-type snubber rated to 1,500 psi for water service, reducing gauge pointer flutter.
  • Corrosive gas handling — Weksler piston-type snubber in stainless steel with NPT connection and three pistons, suitable for corrosive gases.
  • Steam and high-temperature media — Weksler steel or iron pigtail siphon with 180-degree coil and NPT connection, creating a condensate barrier to protect gauges.
  • Boiler and steam distribution — Weksler pigtail siphon rated to 1,000 psi for water service, installed between the process and the pressure gauge.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about WEKSLER from 3G Electric.

What is the difference between a Weksler filter-type snubber and a piston-type snubber?

Filter-type Weksler snubbers use a porous element to dampen pressure pulsations. The units 3G Electric carries are rated to 1,500 psi maximum and are available in brass or stainless steel with FNPT or NPT connections for air, oil, or water service. Piston-type snubbers use a moving piston instead of a filter element. The catalog includes a stainless steel piston-type model with NPT connection and three pistons, intended for corrosive gases. Selection depends on the process medium and whether a porous element is compatible with the fluid.

What connection sizes and materials are available for Weksler pigtail siphons?

The Weksler pigtail siphons stocked by 3G Electric are available in steel or iron construction. Connection sizes include 1/4 in NPT and 1/2 in NPT. Coil configuration is 180 degrees. Lengths are 5 3/8 in or 7 1/4 in depending on the model. Maximum internal pressure ratings are 500 psi or 1,000 psi for water service. The siphon is installed between the process and the gauge to create a condensate barrier that reduces the temperature of the media reaching the instrument.

Can Weksler pressure gauge snubbers be used with corrosive media?

Weksler snubbers are available in materials suited to different media. Brass filter-type snubbers are intended for air, oil, or water service. Stainless steel filter-type snubbers are also available for oil and water. For corrosive gases, the catalog includes a stainless steel piston-type snubber with NPT connection and three pistons. Material compatibility should be confirmed against the specific process fluid, concentration, and temperature before installation. The maximum pressure rating for the filter-type units is 1,500 psi.

What is the maximum pressure rating for Weksler filter-type snubbers?

The Weksler filter-type snubbers listed by 3G Electric carry a maximum pressure rating of 1,500 psi. This applies to the brass and stainless steel models with FNPT or NPT connections. The rating is for the snubber itself; the connected gauge and other system components may have different limits. Pigtail siphons in the catalog have lower internal pressure ratings, typically 500 psi or 1,000 psi for water service, depending on the model.

How do I select the correct Weksler snubber for a pressure gauge installation?

Selection depends on the process medium, wetted material compatibility, connection type and size, and maximum system pressure. For air, oil, or water with pressure pulsations, a filter-type snubber in brass or stainless steel is typical. For corrosive gases, a piston-type stainless steel snubber is appropriate. If the process temperature exceeds the gauge rating, a pigtail siphon is used to create a condensate barrier. 3G Electric lists manufacturer part numbers and specifications for each Weksler item to help match the accessory to the existing gauge and process conditions.
