Titan 550-448 Gun Head

Gun Head for Airless LX-70 Inline Gun

Part 550-448 is a replacement gun head specifically designed for the Airless LX-70 Inline Gun. The gun head represents the forward section of the spray gun assembly, housing the critical internal fluid passages that direct coating material from the gun body to the spray tip. Within the gun head, the fluid path is precisely machined to maintain consistent flow characteristics and minimize pressure loss as material travels toward the tip. The gun head also provides the mounting interface for the tip guard, spray tip, and seal components that together determine spray pattern quality and fan width. During normal use, the gun head is subjected to the full operating pressure of the spray system, which can reach several thousand pounds per square inch in airless applications. Over extended service, the internal fluid passages may become eroded by abrasive coating materials, or the threads that secure the tip guard and retaining components may become worn or damaged. Physical impact can also cause distortion or cracking of the gun head housing, compromising its ability to maintain a leak-free seal. Common symptoms indicating gun head replacement include visible fluid leaks originating from the forward section of the gun, difficulty achieving a consistent spray pattern despite tip replacement, cross-threading or inability to securely mount tip components, or external damage to the housing that affects structural integrity. Replacing the gun head restores the original fluid pathway geometry, proper tip mounting, and leak-free operation essential for professional spray application results.
