2 Pack Reversible Spray Tips for Airless Paint Sprayer (517)

I was in the process of spraying trim and doors in approx. 900 sqft of our addition. The trim was door casing, window casing and baseboard. All of them were approx 6” in width. A pro painter recommended a graco fine finish tip of a 208, 209, 210. I bought the 210 and it worked great. I had a couple runs but nothing crazy or unmanageable. However, I was concerned the 4” spray pattern was too narrow and a 300 series tip would work better on the doors but spending another $50 on a graco tip was tough to swallow. So, I took a chance on this aftermarket tip. Did it work? Absolutely, I didn’t notice the difference in quality. I bought the 317 which has a 6” spray pattern at 12” away and produced more volume than the 210 does. The 210 was a fine finish tip, I don’t think the 317 is. The 220 uses the blue rack (which I had to purchase) but the 317 tip used the orange rack that came with my pump. I had a couple slight runs with the 317 tip but they were on the first coat and easy to sand. One the 2nd coat, I perfected my spray pattern and had no runs. Sure there are lots of tricks for a pro quality job, but overall I was very pleased with this 1/4 price pair of tips. If I were you, I wouldn’t hesitate. BTW, I was using a Graco Magnum M5 pump. The instructions say my pump isn’t compatible, but it fit the gun and I had no trouble spraying it.

My new airless sprayer (the X7) indicates nozzles should be swapped every 15 to 30 gallons of paint and when cleaning the unit. There's an amazing buildup of overspray on the head after just a few gallons so I took their suggestion. The problem is the factory nozzled were fairly expensive and this pair was 1/3 the price for 2 of them (plus the seals). The pattern was slightly wider than the factory nozzle but it was even and the paint went on as well as the factory. I'm pleased with these as an alternative. My current project will probably require changing colors/tips 6 times so this is quite a savings. It's partially down to multiple colors, partially because of weather. I think this pair of tips will probably complete the project with no trouble.

Worked as described,

Did not work with harbor freight airless sprayer gun. Thankfully i was able to take one of the seat / gaskets from this kit and use it.

very good pattern with my GRACO Magnum X5. using latex paint and i prefer a 6" pattern rather than an 8" or 10"

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Tips seem fine and are decent build quality, but do not fit in our Wagner 130. Metal part is too long.

Want no overspray ? Want to use less paint ? Than start using these !! Game changer..I had to turn down my paint flow which means it goes further !! These tips are sweet !!

These seem to work well at a fraction of the price of the name brand product.

Make a line on the painting, I tried everything and use the old one.
