Maintain & Upgrade with the Precision-Engineered Graco Ultra 750 Suction Tube Kit (208259)
Downtime chews up profits faster than you can roll a wall. A split suction hose, cracked bung adapter, or clogged foot-valve on your Graco Ultra 750 instantly chokes flow, spikes pump cavitation, and forces you to babysit a rig that should be printing money. The factory-original Suction Tube Kit 208259 eliminates those pain points in one bolt-on package, restoring the high-lift priming power your airless pump was born with and letting you spray straight from full 55-gallon (208 L) drums without decanting.
Five Reasons Pros Demand the Genuine 208259 Kit
- Exact-Fit Engineering ≫ Every thread, O-ring seat, and ¾″ NPT(F) outlet is CNC-cut to match the OEM Ultra 750 inlet casting—no PTFE tape gymnastics, no weeping joints.
- Full-Flow Architecture ≫ A ¾″ ID by 6 ft (1.8 m) chemical-resistant hose, sweep elbow, and low-restriction riser tube deliver up to 2.9 L / min at 210 bar on the Ultra Plus 750 with zero cavitation.
-
55-Gallon Reach ≫ The kit’s steel bung adapter (threaded 2″ NPT) locks into any standard drum, preventing “fishtailing” during transport and siphoning down to the last quart.
- Factory Warranty ≫ Covered by Graco’s parts guarantee.
- Long-Life Filtration ≫ A reusable 1190-µm stainless foot strainer blocks job-killing debris yet cleans out in seconds with mineral spirits.

Compatible Sprayers & Drum-Feed Retrofits
The 208259 kit arrives pre-cut for the Ultra 750 family—Upright, Lo-Boy, and cart models—but contractors routinely fit it to a range of mid-flow Graco rigs thanks to the shared ¾″ inlet block:
- Ultra Plus 750 (231-345) & Ultra 750 HD carts
- Ultra Max II 695 when up-scaling from the 20 L suction hose (kit 244685) for high-build elastomerics
- Mark V & GMAX 5900 HD rigs via 243392 adapter—ideal for texture crews chasing heavy fillers
- Graco Reactor drum transfer pumps in plural-component foam shops (field-verified by SprayersAndParts tech team)

- Store wet—fill hose and valve with Pump Armor®; corrosion drops by 80 %.
- Color-code consumables—blue bins for graco sprayer accessories, green for gun parts, red for safety PPE—techs grab what they need in seconds.
