Overview: Finex 289249 Pressure-Feed HVLP Gun
Graco 289249 Finex Air Spray Pressure Feed Gun is a lightweight, fine-finish HVLP spray gun designed for regulated pressure-feed material supply. It uses optimized air caps and a precise needle/nozzle set for smooth atomization and consistent finish quality.
Compatible Machines / Setups
This model connects to pressure-feed systems. Use with any setup that provides clean, regulated air and a compatible fluid outlet.
- Pressure Pots / Tanks (regulated) supplying coating via fluid hose
- Pressure-Feed Diaphragm or Piston Pumps configured for air spray finishing lines
- Plant / Shop Compressed Air with filtration, moisture/oil removal, and regulator
Note: This is not a cup gun and does not “fit” a single airless sprayer model; it connects to compatible pressure-feed equipment via the thread sizes below.
Why Choose the Finex 289249
- Light, comfortable body with low trigger pull for reduced fatigue
- Optimized HVLP air caps for fine-finish atomization
- Pressure-feed layout supports continuous production and fast color changes
- Simple maintenance with durable wear components

Setup & Use Tips
- Pair with a regulated pressure pot or pressure-feed pump matched to coating viscosity.
- Provide clean, dry air (filter + regulator); start with low pressure, then fine-tune atomization.
- Keep the gun, cap, and nozzle clean to maintain consistent finish quality.
Frequently Asked Questions
It’s a pressure-feed HVLP gun. Instead of mounting on a single sprayer, it connects to compatible pressure pots or pressure-feed pumps using the listed air/fluid thread sizes.
Air inlet: 1/4" NPSM. Fluid inlet (pressure-feed body): 3/8-18 NPSM. Typical HVLP flow is about 9.5–12 SCFM depending on the air cap and regulator settings.
Most fine-finish coatings (e.g., lacquer, enamel, clear coats, primers) are suitable when properly thinned and used within the manufacturer’s recommended pressure and tip guidelines.
No. The 289249 is a pressure-feed configuration. If you need a gravity-cup model, see Finex gravity-feed variants instead.
