Product Description

The Graco 17T455 Cover Tube, Mixing is an OEM protective tube cover designed to house or shield the mixing tube segment of a continuous mix or hopper machine. Mixing tubes — the channels where raw materials and water or additives converge — are subject to abrasive wear, material buildup, and impact from particulate loads. A dedicated tube cover helps protect the interior of the mixing passage, simplifies cleaning and maintenance, and prolongs service life for critical internal surfaces.

This cover typically installs over the external surface of the mixing tube or at the entrance to the mixing zone, providing a replaceable wear surface that isolates the more expensive underlying structure. OEM tube covers are engineered for exact fit and alignment so that they do not interfere with flow or mixing efficiency. Regular inspection and timely replacement of the cover help maintain consistent mix quality and prevent downstream issues such as blockages or accelerated wear on internal mixers and valves.
