The GRACO 189408 Housing, Ball, SST is a stainless steel (SST) ball housing component designed for use in GRACO industrial equipment, specifically within fluid handling and pumping systems. It serves as a critical part of the valve assembly, providing a secure and durable enclosure for the ball and related components, ensuring reliable operation and resistance to corrosion in demanding environments.

Key Features:

• Ball Housing
• Stainless Steel (SST)
• Compatible with GRACO industrial equipment, particularly those requiring ball housing assemblies (e.g., Dura-Flo Lowers series)
• Corrosion-resistant stainless steel construction
• Designed for durability and reliability in harsh environments
• Ease of maintenance and replacement as part of valve assemblies

Applications:
Used in industrial fluid handling and pumping systems, including lubrication, spray, and maintenance equipment. Suitable for applications requiring robust, corrosion-resistant valve components.

Installation Notes:

• Using genuine GRACO parts ensures optimal performance, compatibility, and longevity of equipment. Non-genuine parts may compromise safety and reliability.
• Refer to the specific GRACO equipment manual for detailed installation instructions
• Ensure proper orientation of the ball housing (ball cavity faces the ball)
• Lubricate components as recommended in the manual
• Use appropriate tools (e.g., rubber mallet) to avoid damaging the rod or cylinder during installation
• Hand-tighten the ball housing onto the rod as specified
• Regularly inspect for wear or corrosion
• Replace as part of scheduled maintenance or when performance issues arise
• Use only recommended lubricants and replacement parts
