Description
Product Overview
The Tllsdss 181-072 pump inlet strainer is engineered specifically for a wide range of Graco airless paint sprayers, including models 695, 795, 1095, 1595, 3900, 5900, 750, 1000, and 1500. Constructed from high‑grade stainless steel, the strainer offers exceptional resistance to rust, corrosion, and high temperatures, ensuring long‑term durability even in demanding professional environments. The double‑screen design incorporates an inner mesh of 10 mesh and an outer mesh of 16 mesh, delivering a balanced filtration capability that captures both large particles and fine debris. With a 1″ NPT (3/4″) thread, the strainer connects securely to the suction hose, providing a leak‑free seal that maintains consistent pressure throughout the painting process. The compact dimensions—approximately 1 inch in width and height—make it easy to store and replace, while the lightweight design (under 5 oz) minimizes added load on the pump.
