| Spray Tip Compatibility
Nearly all the reversible airless spray tips on the market these days are interchangeable. However, there is one or two on the market that is not and since some manufactures try to use confusion to persuade customers to only buy the same tip brand that came on their airless we setup the following guide to end the confusion.
Basically, look at the pictures below, find the tip you have now, and in that section you will see links to compatible replacement tips and tip bases.
    
All these tips can use either of these Tip bases:
SprayTech Tip Guard/Base
ASM Uni Tip Guard/Base
All these tips can be replaced with either of the following Tips (And require no tip-base change; they will simply install into your existing tip-base.):
SprayTech XL-1 Reversible Tip
XL-1 Fine Finish Tip
ASM Uni-Tip
The Graco Rac X (Rac 10) "Blue" tip and "Blue" tip bases are not compatible with any other tip or tip bases.
If you have the Rac X system, you have some choices :
Stay with the Rac X (that's the whole reason Graco came up with new system! They want you locked in!)
Buy a XL-1 Tip and a SprayTech Tip Guard/Base . (Simply use the SprayTech tip base when using SprayTech tips, and use your old blue base when using your old blue tips.)
Buy a ASM Uni-Tip and a ASM Uni Tip Guard/Base.
Buy a combination of ASM Uni-Tips, XL-1 Tips and buy Either a ASM Uni Tip Guard/Base or a SprayTech Tip Guard/Base. (Again as pointed out earlier on this page, our XL-1 and Uni Tips&Bases are 100% interchangeable.)
The original Zip tips are mostly noticeable by their smaller tip barrels. These tips are not interchangeable with any of today's tips or bases. Wagner used these Zip tips for many years back in the 90's (Stopped using around year 2000). If you have Zip Tips/Bases you have the following choices:
Continue using the Zip Tip system. We do have a few sizes and bases hear: Zip Tips and Bases
Upgrade, by buying an XL-1 Tip and a new 7/8" SprayTech Tip Guard/Base OR a 11/16" SprayTech Tip Guard/Base (if you have an older Wagner gun that is using the zip tips, there is a 99% chance it's a 11/16" Gun)
Upgrade to a newer/better Replacement Airless Gun
