What happens here
Once the correct nozzle orifice size is determined, you must select the appropriate filter and tip holder. Filters come in different mesh sizes (e.g., #50 for thick materials like coatings, #100 for interior dispersions, #180 for fine materials like lacquers and enamels) and are crucial to prevent the nozzle from clogging. It's also important to ensure the chosen nozzle is compatible with your tip holder. Different manufacturers (e.g., Graco, Wagner) have distinct tip holder designs, and an incompatible fit can prevent proper operation.
Goal: Choose the correct filter mesh size and compatible tip holder (portaboquillas) to accompany your selected nozzle. This prevents clogging and ensures proper nozzle fit.
