Part 2408355 is a suction tube assembly (replaces Titan part 0537242A) used to draw material from the paint pail into the pump on compatible PowrLiner stripers. This rigid tube assembly includes the pickup tube, strainer, and mounting hardware for secure attachment to the pump inlet. A cracked, clogged, or damaged suction tube can cause loss of prime, reduced flow, and erratic spray performance. Replacing with this genuine assembly restores proper material pickup and reliable operation on multiple PowrLiner models.

| Condition | New |
The 2408355 Suction Tube Assembly is a direct replacement for the original Titan 0537242A component, designed for use on multiple PowrLiner line striping machines. This assembly consists of a rigid pickup tube, integrated strainer/filter, and all necessary mounting hardware to connect the paint pail to the pump inlet.
The suction tube draws material from the pail and delivers it to the pump while the strainer prevents debris and contaminants from entering the fluid system. A damaged, clogged, or cracked suction tube can lead to loss of pump prime, intermittent material flow, air ingestion, and reduced striping quality. Replacing a worn or damaged assembly with this genuine part ensures consistent material pickup and reliable operation on the job site.
| Material pickup | Draws paint from the pail into the pump inlet |
|---|---|
| Debris filtration | Integrated strainer prevents contaminants from entering pump |
| Prime maintenance | Airtight seal ensures pump maintains prime during operation |
| Fluid delivery | Provides consistent material flow to the pumping system |
| Loss of prime | Pump repeatedly loses prime during operation |
|---|---|
| Visible cracks | Cracked or damaged tube allowing air ingestion |
| Clogged strainer | Strainer damaged or cannot be cleaned effectively |
| Missing hardware | Mounting components lost or damaged |

When replacing the suction tube assembly, consider inspecting these associated components.
Check for thread damage or wear where suction tube attaches.
Ensure pail is properly positioned for optimal suction tube reach [citation:1].
If suction tube strainer is clogged, check main fluid filter as well.
