The GRACO 198555 Tie Rod is a mechanical component designed to secure and align sections of divider valves within GRACO lubrication equipment. Its material is not specified in available sources, but it is intended for use in maintaining the structural integrity and proper function of GRACO divider valve assemblies.

Key Features:

• Tie Rod
• Designed for use with GRACO divider valve assemblies (specific compatibility with Trabon® MX or MSP series may apply, but not confirmed for 198555)
• Secures multiple valve sections together
• Ensures proper alignment and structural integrity
• Ease of maintenance (when used as part of a complete assembly)
• Reliable performance in demanding industrial environments

Applications:
Used in industrial lubrication systems, particularly in applications requiring multi-section divider valves for precise fluid distribution. Suitable for in-plant machinery, on-road vehicles, off-road equipment, and compressor equipment (based on similar GRACO tie rod applications).

Installation Notes:

• Using genuine GRACO tie rods ensures proper fit, alignment, and reliability of the lubrication system, reducing the risk of leaks or mechanical failure.
• Ensure all sections of the divider valve are properly aligned before tightening the tie rod
• Use appropriate tools to avoid over-tightening or damaging the rod
• Regularly inspect tie rods for wear or deformation as part of routine maintenance
• Follow manufacturer guidelines for installation and torque specifications
• Replace tie rods if signs of wear or damage are present
• Consult the equipment manual for specific installation instructions
