The GRACO 185648 is a female gland component designed for use in GRACO displacement pumps. It is typically constructed from materials such as ductile iron, carbon steel, or stainless steel, and is used to secure and seal internal pump components, ensuring reliable operation and preventing leaks. This part is essential for maintaining the integrity and performance of GRACO pump assemblies.

Key Features:

• Female Gland
• Ductile Iron, Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel (varies by application)
• Up to 400 psi (28 bar) in compatible assemblies
• GRACO displacement pumps, especially those using PTFE throat packings
• Designed for secure sealing of pump components
• Supports conversion to PTFE throat packings
• Reliable performance in high-pressure environments
• Ease of maintenance and replacement

Applications:
Used in GRACO displacement pumps for industrial fluid handling, lubrication, and maintenance applications. Suitable for use in mining, agriculture, and other heavy-duty environments.

Installation Notes:

• Using genuine GRACO parts ensures optimal fit, performance, and longevity of the pump assembly.
• Ensure pump is depressurized and isolated before installation
• Follow GRACO’s recommended procedures for gland replacement
• Inspect mating surfaces for wear or damage prior to installation
• Use appropriate tools to avoid damaging the gland or pump body
• Regularly inspect glands for wear or leakage
• Replace glands as part of scheduled maintenance or when signs of wear are detected
• Use only GRACO-approved replacement parts for best results
