A regulator comprised of a housing having an ingress for connection to a source of gas at a first pressure and an egress adapted for supplying gas at a lower pressure than the first pressure. A fixed member, located within the housing, separates the ingress from the egress and has at least one opening extending therethrough. A throttling tube is located in the housing and extends through the opening in the fixed member to control the flow of gas from the ingress to the egress. The throttling tube has a first end juxtaposed with a compressible disk and a second end juxtaposed with a valve seat. An actuation lever responds to a pressure within the housing to move the throttling tube into and out of engagement with the valve seat. The throttling tube responds to a force provided by the disk when it is out of engagement with valve seat.
