Installation Notes
- Fully depressurize the Titan sprayer, lock out power and disconnect the gun before servicing the pump
- Remove the inlet or outlet valve body per Titan service instructions and clean all internal components
- Inspect the valve seat (such as 0296058) and cage (such as 0296057) for wear or damage and replace if necessary
- Install the Bedford 9-3471 ceramic ball with a clean, undamaged seat surface to ensure full contact
- Reassemble the valve, prime the pump and verify proper check operation and pressure stability under load
Pro Tip: Always replace ceramic balls in pairs when servicing matched inlet and outlet check valves to maintain balanced sealing performance and consistent priming characteristics.
When to Replace Ceramic Balls
- Loss of prime, slow priming or frequent need to re-prime the Titan pump
- Pressure fluctuations, surging or inconsistent spray pattern at the gun
- Visible chipping, flat spots or contamination on the existing ceramic ball surface
- Evidence of backflow through the check valve or difficulty holding pressure at closed gun

Frequently Asked Questions
The Titan 0555596 ceramic ball is the sealing element inside selected inlet and outlet check valves. It moves against the valve seat to allow one-way flow, helping your pump prime correctly, hold pressure and prevent backflow in Titan Impact and PowrLiner sprayers.
Yes, Bedford 9-3471 is designed as an aftermarket replacement for Titan 0555596 and is commonly used in check valve assemblies on Titan Impact 440 and 540 models where the parts list specifies ceramic ball 0555596.
Ceramic balls offer superior wear resistance and hardness compared to stainless steel, especially in abrasive or high-solids coatings. This helps maintain a consistent seal against the valve seat, extend valve life and reduce performance drift over time.
In many Titan pump designs, the same 0555596 ceramic ball is used in both inlet and outlet check valves. Always confirm your parts breakdown to verify that 0555596 is specified for the valve location you are servicing before installing Bedford 9-3471.
If in stock, Bedford 9-3471 typically ships from Bedford Hills, New York, providing quick delivery to most regions when ordered through participating distributors and service centers.
