The Bedford 20-3354 is a direct-fit replacement for the Graco 244-571 intake seat, ball, and O-ring assembly, a critical valve component in airless spray pump systems. This kit supplies the essential sealing and flow-control elements that regulate fluid entry into the pump chamber during the intake stroke.

Pump service technicians and spray equipment specialists rely on this assembly to restore proper pump priming and consistent flow rates in equipment that has experienced performance degradation. When intake components wear or fail, the entire pump cycle becomes compromised, leading to pressure loss and application inconsistencies.

Common reasons for replacement:

• Intake ball becomes stuck, cracked, or develops surface erosion that prevents proper seating and breaks the pump's seal
• O-ring hardening, shrinkage, or extrusion causing fluid bypass and loss of prime during pump operation
• Intake seat surface develops scoring or pitting from particulate contamination, preventing the ball from forming a tight seal
• Fluid leakage from the intake chamber or failure to build system pressure despite normal pump cycling

Manufactured to OEM-equivalent dimensions for proper fit and performance. Compatible Graco equipment models are listed in the Compatible Equipment section below, where available.
