Product Description

The Graco 15A978 Tip Gasket is an OEM‑specified seal designed to provide a secure, leak‑resistant interface between the spray gun body and the spray tip assembly. It helps maintain optimum fluid flow, prevent bypass leakage, and ensure consistent spray performance.

Crafted to precise tolerances using materials compatible with painting fluids, solvent systems and coatings, the 15A978 gasket supports long‑term reliability of the tip connection. If a spray tip exhibits leakage, inconsistent pattern, or fluid buildup around the tip base, replacing this gasket restores the seal and improves system performance.
