Graco 15C922 Tapered Valve Spool

Graco 15C922 Tapered Valve Spool – Detailed Overview

Product Description

The Graco 15C922 Tapered Valve Spool is a precision-engineered OEM component used in Graco metering and pressure-compensating valve systems. This spool features a tapered design that helps regulate fluid flow by opening and closing against a matching valve seat, allowing for smooth, accurate control of material pressure under variable conditions.

Key Features & Benefits

• Tapered design enables fine control of fluid flow and pressure relief
• OEM part ensures proper fit, alignment, and reliable performance in compatible Graco valves 
• Durable construction resists wear even under high differential pressure
• Balances upstream and downstream pressure for consistent output, especially in pressure‑compensating valve systems 
• Helps maintain accurate metering and smooth operation in finish or texture spraying equipment

Technical Specifications

Applications & Practical Use

• Used in Graco pressure‑compensating valves to regulate and stabilize outgoing fluid pressure 
• Helps maintain a steady output on spray systems when inlet pressure fluctuates
• Replaced during valve rebuilds or maintenance when the spool becomes worn or damaged
• Essential for professional finishers and contractors demanding consistent metering in texture or coating applications

Maintenance & Replacement Tips

• Inspect spool for signs of wear, scoring or taper deformation during valve servicing
• Clean valve housing and spool bore thoroughly to remove any deposits or debris that might impair sealing or movement
• Replace the spool if leak, inconsistent flow, or pressure instability is observed
• When reassembling, use compatible seals and torque fasteners to manufacturer’s specification to ensure proper alignment
