Graco GMAX 3400 is the smallest gas unit in Graco’s contractor lineup, yet it muscles through block-fillers and full exterior repaints with a Honda 120 cc engine pumping 0.75 GPM at 3300 psi through RAC X tips.The Lo-Boy frame keeps weight low—just over 120 lb with fuel—so one tech can ramp it into a van without a liftgate, and the Suction Set Kit (p/n 24W028) slashes clean-up time by swapping the rigid siphon for a quick-drain hose and oversized inlet strainer.
Because downtime drains profit faster than overspray, crews who run graco paint sprayers rely on SprayersAndParts.com for factory-sealed graco sprayer parts.
Why Genuine Graco GMAX 3400 Suction Set Parts Beat Generic Copies
- Exact Tolerances ±2 µm The Chromex-coated inlet seat and stainless ball are lapped as a matched pair, eliminating the “morning dribble” that ruins first-coat coverage.
- Full-pressure Certification Every diaphragm gasket and hose barb passes 3300 psi hydro-burst testing; many gray-market kits burst below 2500 psi.
- SmartControl™ Ready OEM sensors chat in real time with the dash display—generics can trigger “pressure error” codes that stall your day.
- One-Ticket Warranty Buy from SprayersAndParts and you get Graco’s factory warranty.

Essential Graco Airless Sprayer Accessories for the 3400
- Graco airless spray guns—upgrade to the Contractor PC Compact for 50 % lighter trigger pull and a one-minute cartridge rebuild.

Pro-Level Maintenance Plan
Daily → Flush with FastFlush™ and log strokes. Five minutes saves a $300 valve job.
Every 50 hours → Re-grease the drive and inspect the suction hose for solvent swelling. Replace at first sign of “pregnancy”—hose blow-outs cost more than a new kit.
Every 500 gallons → Install OEM packing kit 18B260 and inlet seat 246429 (fits 3400 Hi-Boy and Lo-Boy).
