Why Choose OEM Nylon Tube
- Exact spec & fit: matches Graco routing dimensions where .250" OD and .033" WA are required.
- Material compatibility: nylon chemistry used by Graco for specific fluids and routing conditions.
- Service reliability: helps maintain proper line sealing with OEM fittings and clips.
Installation & Fit Tips
- Confirm in your machine’s parts manual that 054172 is called out for the location you’re servicing.
- Measure existing line: verify .250" OD and check the .033" wall if noted.
- Inspect fittings: ensure barbs/compression fittings are rated for .250" OD nylon.
- Routing: follow original bends/clips to avoid kinks and maintain flow.
- Fluids: confirm nylon compatibility with the coating/solvent per Graco guidelines.

Notes on Compatibility
Because tubing is often shared across multiple platforms and production years, model compatibility varies. If your sprayer’s documentation lists a .250" OD, .033" WA nylon tube at the service location you’re repairing, 054172 is likely the intended replacement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Check your unit’s parts manual. If the manual lists 054172 or specifies a .250" OD, .033" wall nylon tube at the location you’re servicing, this is the correct OEM part.
.250" OD (1/4") with a .033" wall, nylon material, round profile.
Nylon is commonly used for low-pressure fluid/air routing, but always verify chemical compatibility with your coating/solvent and Graco guidance for your model.
Substitutions may affect fit, sealing, and durability. Only substitute if Graco documentation permits and dimensions/materials match system requirements.
Match the original routing and measure the existing line; if the manual specifies a cut length, follow that value. Avoid sharp bends that could kink the tube.
