Helix part 0138032A is a complete fluid section assembly for Helix LP sprayers. This assembly includes all internal components that pressurize and deliver paint: intake and discharge valves, piston packings, cylinders, and seals. Replace a worn, leaking, or damaged fluid section to restore pump performance, pressure stability, and spraying efficiency.

The 0138032A fluid section assembly is the heart of the pumping system on Helix LP sprayers. This pre-assembled unit contains all the critical wear components that draw paint from the container, pressurize it, and deliver it to the hose: intake and discharge valves, piston packings, cylinder, and associated seals.
Over time, normal wear from abrasion, chemical exposure, and continuous operation degrades packings, valves, and seals. Symptoms include loss of pressure, surging, leaking, or failure to prime. Replacing the complete fluid section assembly restores the pump to like-new performance without the need for individual part identification and assembly, saving time and ensuring all components are matched for optimal operation.
| Fluid intake | Draws paint from container through inlet valve |
|---|---|
| Pressurization | Piston and packings compress fluid to working pressure |
| Fluid delivery | Discharge valve releases pressurized paint to hose |
| Low / surging pressure | Unable to maintain consistent spray pressure |
|---|---|
| External leaks | Paint seeping from pump area |
| Poor priming | Pump fails to draw paint or loses prime repeatedly |
| Excessive wear | High hours of use; preventative replacement recommended |
Part 0138032A is specifically designed for the Helix LP sprayer. Always verify fitment by consulting your machine's parts manual.

When replacing the fluid section, inspect these associated components to ensure complete system reliability.
A clogged or damaged siphon hose can affect priming; inspect and replace if necessary.
Check for wear in the drive mechanism that operates the piston.
Ensure filters and valves upstream are clean and functioning.
