Graco 167664 Female Gland - Aftermarket Replacement | Bedford 18-1365

The female gland preloads and centers the V-packing stack in select Graco pump lowers, helping the piston run true, reduce bypass, and maintain even sealing pressure during long spray cycles. This aftermarket replacement for Graco 167664 installs as Bedford 18-1365, offering a tight, repeatable fit and a smooth bearing surface to support consistent priming, steady pressure, and clean patterns with common architectural coatings and protective finishes.

Aftermarket Precision-Turned Industrial Duty

Why Choose This Female Gland

  • Applies uniform compression to leather/PTFE/PE packings for long seal life and less maintenance.
  • Machined seating faces help alignment of the piston rod and lower, reducing start-up chatter.
  • Direct aftermarket cross keeps costs in control while preserving OEM-style geometry.

Color: Natural steel (silver/gray) with light protective oil film.

Typical Compatibility

  • Graco airless pump lowers and repair kits that list OEM part 167664 as the female gland.
  • Common on small/medium electric sprayers where a stacked V-packing set is used (e.g., Ultra/Ultimate 395-595 class) when specified in the IPL.
  • Also found in select contractor-grade units with standard paint/coatings duty; verify by model IPL before ordering.
