The GRACO 16H295 is a locking ring designed for use with GRACO air-driven agitators. It is typically made from durable metal and is used to secure angled adapters in place during agitator installation, ensuring stability and proper alignment within drum or barrel applications.

Key Features:

• Locking Ring
• 16H295; Width: 2.75 in, Height: 0.30 in, Depth: 2.95 in
• Compatible with GRACO air-driven agitators and angled adapters (e.g., 16H294 angled adapter)
• Securely locks angled adapter in place
• Prevents movement during operation
• Easy to install and remove with standard tools
• Durable construction for repeated use

Applications:
Used in the installation of GRACO air-driven agitators, particularly when mounting agitators on drums with off-center bungs to ensure proper alignment and prevent contact between agitator blades and drum walls.

Installation Notes:

• Using genuine GRACO locking rings ensures proper fit, safety, and reliability of agitator installations, reducing the risk of equipment failure or misalignment.
• Thread the locking ring onto the angled adapter by hand as far as it will go before installation
• After threading the adapter into the bung, turn down the locking ring until it contacts the drum
• Use an appropriately sized pipe wrench or adjustable wrench to tighten the adapter and locking ring securely
• Ensure the widest portion of the adapter top is aligned with the drum center for optimal performance
• Regularly inspect the locking ring for wear or damage
• Replace if signs of deformation or excessive wear are present
• Ensure proper torque is applied during installation to avoid over-tightening
