Why Choose This Reverse Tip Set

  • Direct aftermarket alternative to OEM 286623 with matched fan and flow.

Service cue: Tips wear - if pattern tails at lower pressures, rotate or replace after ~40-50 gallons with abrasive coatings.

  • Graco SG2/SG3 spray guns and many contractor sprayers supplied with RAC 5 guards.
