Plunger Rod 8-1/4 (22029500)
Plunger Rod 8-1/4 by B&G Equipment Company is specifically sold for use as a replacement part for B&G sprayers. The plunger rod is an important part of the sprayer pump assembly as it helps to transport the air pressure so the sprayer sprays properly. Plunger rods experience wear and tear over time and should be replaced periodically to keep the sprayer performing at a high level.
Tools Needed
To use this part, you will need the appropriate B&G Sprayer to replace the part on and possibly a pair of pliers or a crescent wrench if the parts are tightly secured.
How to Use
- Step 1:Following the instructions in the repair manual, remove the pump assembly and begin to take it apart.
- Step 2:Remove the old plunger rod from the assembly and replace with the new plunger rod.
- Step 3: Re-assemble the pump by inserting the short end of the cable into the back so that threads are exposed at the nozzle end.
Where to Use
The Plunger Rod is meant to be used only for replacement on a B&G handpump sprayer such as the N124 and similar models. There are other models it can also fit.
When to Use
Replace the plunger rod when it has been damaged or you are experiencing pump pressure issues. How often this part is changed depends on how often you use the sprayer. If it is heavily used, the part wears and tears quicker. Typically at minimum we suggest changing it out annually.
Safety Information
Be sure to wear gloves when handling the B&G sprayer parts, as there may be residue from chemicals or buildup on the sprayer parts. Be sure to properly drain and clean the sprayer parts before performing maintenance. Keep the plunger rod out of reach of pets and children.
Special Considerations
Along with the plunger rod, check to see if any other small parts on the B&G Sprayer need replacing. Set a maintenance schedule for your sprayer and change out all the parts in one shot to save time so your B&G sprayer can be ready to use.
