Frequently Asked Questions
The 249198 is a kit that uses the 218133 (100-mesh) element. If your gun calls for 218133, this kit is the appropriate replacement format.
Check the gun model supplied with your sprayer. If it’s an Original Contractor, Contractor FTx (older style), SG2, or SG3 that specifies the 218133 filter, 249198 is compatible—regardless of the pump model.
Many Contractor II guns use a different filter/kit. Refer to your gun manual or parts list. If your manual does not call out 218133, do not use 249198.
100-mesh is commonly used for interior/exterior paints and primers. For very fine finishes (e.g., lacquers), your gun manual may recommend a finer mesh; for heavy coatings, a coarser mesh may be specified.
Replace when the filter shows damage, collapse, persistent clogging, or restricted flow after cleaning. Frequent cleaning extends life and improves spray consistency.
