Frequently Asked Questions

Confirm your spray gun uses a flat-tip guard for 163-xxx tips and that the guard threads match your gun. If your system specifies RAC tips, choose the equivalent RAC size instead of this flat tip.

Thin to medium-viscosity coatings (e.g., lacquers, enamels, waterborne finishes, light latex) where a fine finish and control are important. Always strain materials and use the lowest effective pressure.

Replace when the fan shrinks notably or the orifice wears (uneven edges, increased flow, more overspray). Worn tips reduce finish quality and waste material.
