The GRACO 16R004 is a fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) chopper system designed for open mold applications. It is engineered to apply chopped fiberglass with precise on-ratio dispensing, allowing easy transition from wet-out to chop dispense operations. The system is constructed for industrial use and is intended to streamline composite material application in manufacturing environments.

Key Features:

• Internal Mix Chop System
• 16R004
• Industrial-grade, includes hose, cart, mast, and boom
• Designed for use with GRACO FRP chopper systems and open mold applications
• 13:1 ratio internal mix for precise material dispensing
• 25 ft (7.6 m) hose for extended reach
• Includes cart, mast, and boom for mobility and positioning
• Optimized ratio stability with adjustable catalyst pump
• Long-lasting seals and extended pump life for lower cost of ownership
• DataTrak Control for monitoring resin usage, pump diagnostics, batch tracking, and maintenance schedules
• Dual trigger function for switching between wet-out and chop modes without removing the chopper

Applications:
Used for applying chopped fiberglass in open mold composite manufacturing processes, such as in the production of fiberglass-reinforced plastic parts.

Installation Notes:

• Using genuine GRACO parts ensures optimal performance, safety, and longevity of the equipment.
• Follow all manufacturer guidelines for assembly and setup
