Graco 244851 Packing Repair Kit - Aftermarket Replacement | Bedford 20-2938

This aftermarket packing set restores sealing performance in Graco Xtreme 750 pump lowers with 180 cc displacement. OEM reference: 244851. Aftermarket reference: 20-2938. Designed for fast maintenance turnarounds and durable uptime in high-duty finishing and protective-coatings work.

Aftermarket Precision-Machined Industrial Duty

Why Choose This Packing Kit

  • Matches Xtreme 750 (180 cc) seal stack geometry for reliable priming and sustained output.
  • Leather / engineered-poly (Xtreme-type) packings for wear resistance and smooth rod movement.
  • Optimized to reduce bypass, maintain pressure, and extend pump-rod life between rebuilds.

Consult your pump manual for stack orientation and torque; throat lips face down, piston lips face up (per Graco Xtreme instructions).

Typical Compatibility

  • Graco Xtreme series pump lowers rated at 180 cc (750) displacement.
  • Industrial systems and skids built around Xtreme 750 lowers (circulation/feed of heavy coatings).
  • Shops standardizing on OEM-spec geometry with aftermarket value and availability.

Always verify your pump’s displacement, series letter, and bill of materials before ordering.

What This Kit Fits

  • Graco Xtreme 750 pump lowers (180 cc) - see your model tag/plate for displacement and series.
  • Industrial finishing, fabrication, and protective-coating lines using Xtreme 750 feed or circulation pumps.

If your pump is a 250 cc (1045) or other displacement, use the specified kit for that lower (e.g., different Graco part numbers).

Installation Notes

  1. Lock out/tag out and relieve system pressure; flush to a compatible solvent if required.
  2. Disassemble the lower; remove worn packings and clean the gland bores and rod.
  3. Lubricate new V-packings; orient throat lips down and piston lips up as indicated.
  4. Rebuild the stack with correct sequence and torque; inspect rod surface finish.
  5. Prime at low speed/pressure; check for leaks and retorque after initial run-in.

Pro tip: Match solvent and lubricant to coating chemistry to maximize packing life.

When to Rebuild / Replace

  • Loss of prime or cavitation at normal suction head.
  • Visible leakage at throat or fluctuating output pressure.
  • Requires higher pressure to achieve the same flow.
  • Rod scoring or abnormal heat generation at the lower.
