SprayTech part 08180 is a V-packing designed to create a durable, leak-proof seal around the piston or rod in the pump fluid section on compatible SprayTech Airless sprayer models. These V-shaped packings provide excellent sealing performance while accommodating reciprocating motion. Replacing worn, hardened, or damaged V-packings restores pump efficiency and prevents fluid bypass.

The 08180 V-Packing is a sealing component used in the fluid section of compatible SprayTech Airless EP2300, EP2300 SE, and EP2400 sprayers. These V-shaped packings create a dynamic seal around the reciprocating piston or rod, preventing fluid bypass during the pressure stroke.
V-packings, also known as Vee packings or chevron packings, are specifically designed for reciprocating motion applications. Their V-shaped cross-section allows fluid pressure to energize the sealing lips, forcing them against the piston and housing for a positive seal. Multiple packings are typically stacked together with male and female adapters to create a complete sealing set. The material is selected for its wear resistance, chemical compatibility, and ability to maintain flexibility over a wide temperature range.
Over time, V-packings can become worn at the sealing lips, hardened from heat or chemical exposure, or damaged by contaminants in the fluid. A worn or damaged V-packing allows fluid to bypass the piston, resulting in pressure loss, reduced output, and material leakage. Replacing the V-packing restores the positive seal needed for efficient pump operation and consistent spray performance.
| Piston sealing | Creates a dynamic seal around the moving piston or rod |
|---|---|
| Pressure containment | Prevents fluid bypass during the pressure stroke |
| Pressure energization | System pressure enhances sealing force |
| Pressure loss | Sprayer cannot maintain operating pressure |
|---|---|
| Fluid bypass | Material leaking past the packing into other areas |
| Hardened packing | Material has become stiff and no longer conforms |
| Worn sealing lips | Visible wear or damage to sealing surfaces |
SprayTech part 08180 is compatible with the following sprayer models. Always verify fitment using your equipment's parts diagram before ordering.

When replacing V-packings, these associated components are often inspected or replaced at the same time.
The shaft the packing seals against; inspect for scoring or wear.
Components that support and compress the V-packing set; inspect for wear.
The component that retains and compresses the packing; check threads and sealing surface.
