The GRACO 184162 Rod Adapter is a mechanical component designed to connect or adapt rods within GRACO pump assemblies. Its material is not explicitly specified in available sources, but it is typically constructed from durable metals for strength and longevity. The adapter rod is intended to facilitate the proper alignment and secure connection of displacement rods in GRACO pump systems, ensuring reliable operation and efficient power transfer.

Key Features:

• Rod Adapter
• Compatible with GRACO Check-Mate 200 series pumps and similar models
• Facilitates secure rod connection
• Supports reliable pump operation
• Designed for ease of installation and maintenance

Applications:
Used in GRACO pump assemblies, particularly in the Check-Mate 200 series, to ensure proper rod alignment and secure mechanical connection for efficient pump performance.

Installation Notes:

• Using genuine GRACO parts ensures proper fit, function, and longevity of the equipment, reducing the risk of premature failure or operational issues.
• Follow manufacturer torque specifications: coupling nut to 41–48 N.m (30–35 ft-lb), packing nut to 27–34 N.m (20–25 ft-lb)
• Hold connecting rod flats with an adjustable wrench to prevent turning during installation
• Reconnect all hoses and ground wire after installation
• Run pump slowly after installation to check for proper operation
• Regularly inspect adapter and rod connections for wear or damage
• Use GRACO Throat Seal Liquid or compatible solvent as recommended
• Follow scheduled maintenance intervals as outlined in the equipment manual
