Graco 116179 Element Filter 60 Mesh

The Graco 116179 Element Filter 60 Mesh is an OEM‑grade filter element designed to remove debris, contaminants and solids from paint, coating or fluid before it enters the spray‑pump or gun. It helps ensure smooth flow, prevents nozzle‑clogging and protects internal components from damage. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

Compatible Systems / Applications

• Graco airless & coating spray pumps / sprayers that require a 60‑mesh filter element (part # 116179) in their fluid path. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}
• Industrial or high‑pressure fluid/spray & coating systems handling paints, primers, coatings or any fluid where debris filtration is needed before pumping or spraying. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}

Product Features

• 60‑mesh filter media — effective at catching solids, dried paint particles, debris that might otherwise clog nozzles or damage pump components. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}
• OEM‑specified filter element — ensures correct dimensions and compatibility with Graco filter housings or manifolds when 116179 is specified. :contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}
• Improves system reliability & finish quality — prevents contaminants from reaching pump or spray tip, reducing maintenance and risk of poor spray output. :contentReference[oaicite:9]{index=9}

When & Why to Use / Replace

• Use when spraying or pumping coatings, paints or fluids that may contain solids, pigment chunks or debris — 60‑mesh filter ensures these don’t reach nozzle/pump.
• Replace the filter element whenever you observe reduced flow, pressure drop, nozzle clogging or after regular maintenance interval — to maintain consistent spray/coat quality and protect equipment.
