Graco 286519 Reverse Tip 3-Pack - Aftermarket Replacement | Bedford 33-7519-3

Restore an even fan and clear clogs quickly with a reversible spray tip in the RAC 5 family. This aftermarket 3-pack cross-references OEM 286519 and Bedford 33-7519-3, providing a 0.019″ orifice with an approximate 10–12″ fan for common architectural and industrial coatings.

Aftermarket 0.019″ Orifice RAC 5 System

Why Choose This Reverse Tip Set

  • Matches OEM size output: ~10–12″ fan with 0.019″ orifice; flip to unclog and resume spraying.
  • Aftermarket cross verified by Bedford for performance and fit.
  • Designed for RAC 5 HandTite guards; simple install and tool-free changeover.

Service cue: If edges start to “tail,” replace the tip and seat - worn tips require higher pressure and reduce coverage.

Typical Compatibility

  • RAC 5 HandTite Tip Guard (243161), 7/8″ thread; for use with all RAC 5 SwitchTips.
  • SG2 & SG3 spray guns and other guns equipped with the 243161 guard (up to ~4050 psi).
  • Cross references include Titan 662-519 noted by Bedford.

Confirm your guard family (RAC 5 vs. RAC X). RAC 5 tips do not fit RAC X guards.

What This Product Fits

  • Graco RAC 5 HandTite 243161 guard on SG2 / SG3 spray guns (7/8″ thread).
  • Airless systems where the IPL or selection guide lists “RAC 5 SwitchTip, size 519.”
  • Bedford cross: replacement for Graco 286519 and Titan 662-519, 3-pack.

Fan width varies with viscosity, tip wear, and spray distance - verify with a test pass before production.

Installation Notes

  1. Relieve system pressure; engage the gun’s trigger lock per the sprayer manual.
  2. Verify RAC 5 guard; place a fresh OneSeal™ (243281) in the guard seat.
  3. Insert the tip with the arrow forward; hand-tighten the guard - avoid overtightening.
  4. Test at low pressure; increase only until the fan is even without heavy edges.
  5. To clear a blockage, rotate the tip 180°, trigger briefly, then return to spray position.

Tip: Keep spare OneSeal™ gaskets; replace at the first sign of weeping around the tip nut.

When to Rebuild / Replace

  • “Cat-ear” tails or streaks even after pressure tuning (orifice wear).
  • Higher pressure needed to atomize the same coating as before.
  • Fan narrowed from the labeled 10–12″ due to erosion. :contentReference[oaicite:22]{index=22}
  • Persistent leaks at the guard indicating a worn or contaminated seat. :contentReference[oaicite:23]{index=23}

FAQs

Yes. Bedford 33-7519-3 cross-references the RAC 5 519 SwitchTip with matching orifice and fan output. :contentReference[oaicite:25]{index=25}
“5” ≈ 10″ fan (5×2), “19” = 0.019″ orifice - Graco lists a 10–12″ fan for this size. :contentReference[oaicite:26]{index=26}
