- Used on compatible Graco air-motor driven pumps
- Helps reduce leakage and seal failure
Graco 221038 Conversion Kit – EPDM Seal Upgrade for Ketone Solvent Use
Compatibility Notice
The Graco 221038 Conversion Kit is designed for Graco air-motor driven pumps that are approved for EPDM seal conversion for use with ketone-based solvents. Graco does not publish a universal, fixed machine list for this kit because compatibility depends on the specific air motor and pump model. Always verify your pump’s manual or parts diagram before installation.
The Graco 221038 Conversion Kit is an official Graco upgrade kit used to replace standard Viton or nitrile seals with EPDM seals. This conversion is required when pumping ketone-based solvents such as acetone or MEK, which can rapidly degrade standard seals and cause premature pump failure.
Purpose of the Conversion Kit
- Converts standard seals to EPDM chemical-resistant seals.
- Allows safe pumping of ketone solvents.
- Prevents seal swelling, leakage, and internal chemical damage.
- Helps maintain proper pump performance in aggressive solvent applications.
