The Story
The Bedford 20-1488 is a direct-fit replacement for the Graco 218-946 Gun Adapter Kit, a critical assembly for professionals who maintain and rebuild spray gun components on Graco airless equipment. This kit addresses the connection interface between the spray gun and the fluid delivery system, where precise fitting and seal integrity are essential for consistent atomization and pressure delivery.
Professional painting contractors and airless spray equipment specialists rely on gun adapter kits when servicing equipment that has seen extended use or when performing scheduled maintenance on rental fleets and job-site equipment. The adapter assembly ensures proper fluid transfer without leakage at the gun connection point, which directly impacts spray quality and material costs on large-scale coating projects.
Common reasons for replacement:
- Worn or damaged connection threads causing fluid seepage at the gun-to-hose interface
- Deteriorated seals or O-rings within the adapter assembly resulting in pressure loss
- Corrosion or pitting on adapter surfaces from repeated solvent exposure and cleaning cycles
- Misalignment issues stemming from impact damage or cross-threaded connections during equipment assembly
Manufactured to OEM-equivalent dimensions for proper fit and performance. Compatible Graco equipment models are listed in the Compatible Equipment section below, where available.
Replacement for: Graco 218-946, Graco 218946.
