Whether you are tackling industrial projects or fine finishing tasks, its precise aperture and balanced design promote optimal flow rates and uniform coverage. Experience consistent output and increased uptime thanks to robust construction that withstands the rigors of professional environments.
The intricate geometry of the flat fan tip nozzle is critical for delivering consistent, uniform spray patterns in demanding industrial environments. Designed to meet stringent manufacturing tolerances, this component enhances atomization and reduces pulsation effects encountered in advanced pumping assemblies. At just 0.025 lbs and dimensions of 0.8 x 0.95 x 0.7 inches, it occupies minimal space on the spray gun manifold while ensuring optimal fluid distribution through its precisely machined orifice. Integrating seamlessly with most standard piston and diaphragm pumps, the Graco 163627 tip exemplifies superior integration with airless sprayer equipment for professional coatings behavior.
Manufactured from hardened stainless steel alloy, the Silver Flat Tip spray surface resists abrasive particulates and maintains structural integrity under cyclic stress loads exceeding 10 million actuation cycles. A proprietary electroless nickel plating layer contributes to corrosion resistance and extends seal longevity when operating in solvent-based or waterborne coatings. This coating also supports high-pressure filtration requirements, preventing premature wear and sustaining consistent volumetric output rates across varying viscosities. The nozzle’s pressure rating of up to 315 bar is validated through dynamic proof testing, certifying compliance with international safety standards for high-pressure industrial spray processes.
Flow performance metrics for the Spray TC tip reveal a laminar spray profile with a finely atomized droplet distribution, optimizing transfer efficiency for both low-viscosity lacquers and heavier polyurea blends. At an orifice diameter of 0.015 inches, throughput can reach 1.2 gallons per minute at 2500 psi, delivering repeatable coverage at line speeds up to 100 ft/min in automated coating cells. This efficiency translates directly to improved pump efficiency estimates, reducing overall energy consumption by up to 8% in continuous duty cycles. Compatibility tests confirm that the nozzle maintains stable spray geometry across a temperature range of –10 to 60 °C, ensuring robust performance in variable production environments.
Design features include a precision-ground flat tip face to produce a fan angle of 65°, balancing spray width and fluid load for optimal overlap in multi-pass applications. A self-cleaning inlet channel reduces clogging by directing particulate entrainment away from the orifice entry. Installation onto standard quick-connect manifolds requires minimal torque—approximately 5 Nm—facilitating rapid maintenance procedures. Operators transitioning from round spray to flat spray patterns will notice enhanced edge definition, improving coating uniformity on complex geometries. The nozzle’s low internal volume minimizes material waste during start-up and purge operations.
Service and maintenance protocols recommend periodic inspection of the tip orifice under optical magnification to detect signs of erosion or carbide matrix fatigue. When replacing the tip, technicians should verify the sealing surface for burrs and apply a thin film of compatible high-pressure lubricant to the thread interface. Routine replacement cycles are determined based on accumulated spray hours; for solvent-rich environments, inspection intervals of every 200 operational hours can prevent unplanned line stoppages. Adherence to these guidelines ensures maximum seal longevity and maintains high-pressure filtration integrity, preserving consistent spray characteristics.
In summary, this flat tip nozzle is a critical component for any advanced coating system requiring tight control over atomization, flow consistency, and spray pattern fidelity. Its materials science, precision machining, and rigorous performance validation align with the requirements of high-throughput industrial finishing lines. Whether used in manual or robotic applicators, it supports professional coatings processes, delivering uniform coverage, reduced overspray, and predictable maintenance cycles within automated or on-demand spray environments. For the most demanding applications in aerospace, automotive, or heavy equipment manufacturing, incorporating this nozzle ensures process repeatability and optimized throughput with minimal operational complexity.
