Frequently Asked Questions

Check your model’s pump/valve diagram and look for part 124249. If listed in the inlet/outlet valve stack, this is the correct replacement. Serial-year variants may differ, so use the exact model and type number from your unit’s data plate.

Silicon-nitride ceramic is extremely hard and wear-resistant, maintaining a precise seal face for longer life, especially with abrasive or solvent-borne coatings. It also resists corrosion. Use the material specified by your pump to maintain designed sealing performance.

No. This listing is for the 124249 ball only. Order the matching valve seat, spring, and any seals or retainers as specified in your sprayer’s valve kit/diagram.

It is used within the pump’s check-valve assembly (inlet and/or outlet, depending on model). The ball seals against a seat to control one-way fluid movement during pump cycles.

Difficulty priming, pressure drop, pulsation, or backflow are common indicators. Inspect for chips/flat spots. Replace the seat at the same time if wear is present to ensure a perfect seal.
