$22.53The Graco 160516 O-Ring Packing 214 is a critical sealing component designed for displacement pump assemblies in industrial spray systems. Engineered to maintain optimal pressure differentials, this packing ring safeguards against fluid bypass and leakage under demanding conditions. Its compact form factor—measuring 0.2 by 1.2 by 1.2 inches—allows seamless integration into Graco pump heads without sacrificing volumetric efficiency. Optimized for compatibility with advanced coatings and solvent blends, the 160516 O-Ring Packing 214 enhances overall system stability by providing exceptional wear resistance and dimensional stability at elevated pressures.
The cross‐section of the 160516 O-Ring Packing 214 follows a proprietary double‐seal profile that balances axial compression and radial expansion. Finite element analysis (FEA) informed the final geometry to ensure uniform stress distribution around the pump plunger. This geometry minimizes extrusion into the clearance gap, thereby extending service intervals. Surface finish is held to Ra ≤ 0.4 µm to reduce frictional heat rise, while gland depth recommendations maintain a static squeeze of 10–20% of the ring’s original thickness for optimal performance.
Constructed from a high‐performance fluoroelastomer compound, the Graco 160516 O-Ring Packing 214 withstands temperatures from –20 °C to 200 °C without significant loss of elastomeric properties. The material boasts high resistance to aromatic and aliphatic solvents, ensuring chemical compatibility across a wide range of professional coatings and solvent blends. In accelerated aging tests, the compound retained over 90% of its original compression set after 500 hours at 150 °C, making it ideal for continuous operation in high‐temperature spray booths and fluid delivery systems.
In bench tests simulating airless sprayer applications, the 160516 O-Ring Packing 214 upheld sealing integrity at pressures up to 3,000 psi. Cyclic pressure fatigue testing demonstrated more than one million actuation cycles before any measurable leakage occurred, confirming its reliability for demanding high‐pressure filtration and dispensing tasks. Critical performance metrics include a static leakage rate below 0.02 cc/min and dynamic friction coefficient under 0.15, ensuring minimal hysteresis during pump reciprocation for consistent flow rates and spray patterns.
Installation of the Graco 160516 O-Ring Packing 214 is straightforward: lightly coat the seal with compatible lubricant, seat the ring into the designated gland, and torque the pump head per manufacturer guidelines. Routine inspection intervals of 500 hours or 1,000 cycles help identify wear patterns early, preventing unplanned downtime. Replacement can be completed in under ten minutes with standard hand tools, supporting rapid field maintenance and reducing operational disruptions in large‐scale coating facilities.
Designed for extended service life, this packing delivers superior fatigue resistance and mitigates micro‐leakage through innovative compound additives that enhance crosslink density. Field performance data shows a 30% increase in seal longevity compared to standard A70 elastomers, translating to fewer seal changeouts and lower total cost of ownership. The combination of robust mechanical properties and high chemical resistance ensures the ring maintains form under continuous high‐cycle conditions, even when handling abrasive or filled coating materials.
Ideal for airless sprayer and professional coatings systems, the Graco 160516 O-Ring Packing 214 excels in both solvent‐based and waterborne environments. Its compatibility with high‐pressure filtration modules and precision metering pumps makes it a reliable choice for automotive finishing lines, industrial spray booths, and protective coatings operations. To maximize performance, pair the seal with routine fluid analysis and pump calibration schedules—this approach ensures consistent spray quality and extends component lifecycles across the entire fluid delivery system.
