Important Usage Notes

Confirm your sprayer’s maximum tip/orifice rating; do not exceed manufacturer limits.
Match the guard/thread style (legacy Silver Flat vs. RAC systems).
Use appropriate filters and maintain clean material to reduce pattern defects.
Start at the lowest effective pressure and adjust just enough to fully atomize the coating.

Frequently Asked Questions

It fits guards that accept the legacy Silver Flat tips (typically 7/8"-16 thread). You must also confirm your sprayer’s maximum tip size/orifice supports 0.071". Many smaller sprayers do not support this size.

High-build or heavy-bodied materials (e.g., elastomerics, block-filler, certain primers) applied with high-output rigs on large, open surfaces. Always follow coating manufacturer recommendations for tip sizes and mesh filtration.

Approximately 16–18" when held ~12" from the surface, depending on pressure, viscosity, and technique. Adjust pressure just enough to achieve full atomization.

Generally no. The 0.071" orifice demands high flow and pressure output. Using it on undersized units can cause poor atomization, pressure drop, or equipment damage.
