AirCraft Direction Screw For AB17 Spray Gun (SG AB17-12)

At a Glance: Replacement direction screw for the AB17—helps keep parts correctly positioned for reliable, consistent spraying.

Spray guns are precision tools, and precision tools rely on small parts doing their jobs properly. The AirCraft SG AB17-12 Direction Screw is a replacement screw used on the AB17 spray gun to help secure and guide the correct positioning of components during operation. If a screw is damaged, missing, or its threads are worn, you can end up with looseness, misalignment and performance that feels inconsistent. Replacing the direction screw helps restore a secure fit and proper alignment so your AB17 stays stable, predictable and ready for clean spraying.
