Titan part 870-021 is a half nut, 3/4-10 used in the fluid section or mechanical linkage of compatible Commander and Hydra airless sprayers. This half nut (also called a split nut) is typically used in a lead screw or adjustment mechanism, allowing quick engagement or disengagement. A worn, stripped, or damaged half nut can cause slipping, loss of adjustment, or failure to hold position. Replacing with the OEM half nut restores proper thread engagement and reliable operation.

The Titan 870-021 Half Nut, 3/4-10 is a genuine OEM replacement half nut (split nut) used in the fluid section or adjustment mechanism of Commander and Hydra series airless sprayers. It features a 3/4-10 thread and is designed to engage with a lead screw for precise positioning or clamping.
Over time, half nuts can wear from repeated adjustment, strip from over‑tightening, or become corroded. A damaged half nut causes slipping under load, inability to hold a set position, or difficulty engaging/disengaging the mechanism. Replacing with OEM Titan 870-021 restores proper thread fit and reliable operation.
