Product Description
The Silver Flat Tip 917 is built for precise, repeatable edges with a controlled flat-fan. Ideal for protective and architectural coatings where uniform coverage and reduced overspray are priorities. Pair with a compatible Graco guard and high-pressure airless gun for best results.
Usage & Fit Notes
- Install in the flat-tip guard and thread to the airless gun per manufacturer instructions.
- Confirm your sprayer/gun pressure rating and filtration are appropriate for a 0.017" tip.
- Adjust pressure and gun distance to achieve full, even fan pattern.
- Monitor tip wear—worn tips increase flow and fan width, affecting finish and material use.

Frequently Asked Questions
If your gun/guard uses the standard 7/8" mount and your system is rated for a 0.017" tip and the required pressure, then this Silver Flat Tip 917 should fit. Always check your model manual to confirm thread and pressure compatibility.
Medium-viscosity architectural and protective coatings commonly pair well (confirm with the coating TDS). Adjust pressure and filtration to maintain atomization without excessive overspray.
Watch for widening fan pattern, higher material usage, or reduced finish quality. These are signs of orifice wear—replace the tip to restore performance.
