Collection: Binks Paint Pressure Pots

Binks 2 Quart Pressure Cups (80-series)

The 2-quart cups are the smallest step up from a siphon or gravity gun — the 80-295 STEADI-GRIP is the classic non-agitated cup, the 80-600 SG-2 Plus upgrades the ergonomics, and the 80-651 propeller-agitator cup stirs metallic and high-solids paints while you spray. Great for touch-ups, small panels, and any job where you don't want to drag a full pot across the shop.

Binks 83Z / 83C — 2.8 Gallon Zinc-Plated Tanks

The zinc-plated 2.8-gallon workhorses. Available in single or dual regulator (control fluid + atomization pressure independently) and with or without direct-drive agitation (paddle mixer for metallic and high-solids paints). Perfect for a solid workday of production spraying on cabinet, industrial, or automotive urethane finishes. Pairs with any 1/4" NPT pressure-feed gun — Binks 2100, DeVilbiss FLG, C.A. Technologies Jaguar/Lynx, or Graco.

Binks 183G / 183S — 5 Gallon ASME Tanks

The 183G galvanized is the go-to for continuous industrial spray operations on solvent-based coatings. The 183S stainless is required when you're spraying waterborne, adhesives, catalyzed epoxies, or anything that would corrode carbon steel. Both are ASME-certified for pressure vessel compliance — required by many insurance policies and OSHA-conscious operations.

Complete Spray Outfits (Pot + Gun combos)

The 98-series outfits pair a Binks tank with a matched spray gun in one crated package — 98C-357 pairs the Binks 2100 conventional gun with a 2.8-gallon tank, 98-3156 pairs the Trophy HVLP gun with a dual-regulator tank, 98C-359 is the multi-color outfit. Saves 15% vs buying pieces separately and everything is factory-matched.

Tank Liners & Consumables

Drop-in liners turn cleanup from a 30-minute scrub into a 30-second lift-out. PT-78 (60-pack) for 2.8-gallon tanks, PTL-408 (20-pack) for 5-gallon, PTL-412 (8-pack) for 10-gallon. Also stocked: Har 511 regulator, 85-453 dual regulator assembly, and full gasket sets.

What size Binks pressure pot do I need?
Match pot size to your job length. 2 quart cups suit touch-ups and small production runs. 2.8 gallon tanks (Binks 83Z/83C) handle a full workday of cabinet or panel work. 5 gallon ASME tanks (183S stainless, 183G galvanized) are for continuous production, industrial coatings, and long shifts where refills would slow you down.

Zinc-plated vs stainless steel — which pot lining do I need?
Zinc-plated (83Z/83C, 183G) works for solvent-based paints, urethanes, primers, and most industrial coatings. Stainless steel (183S) is required for water-based coatings, adhesives, food-grade finishes, or high-corrosion catalyzed materials — carbon steel corrodes with water-based chemistry.

Do I need a dual regulator or single regulator?
A dual regulator lets you set fluid pressure (tank pressure pushing paint to the gun) and atomization air pressure independently. Single regulator versions save cost but you have to pick one setting. If you frequently change materials or spray guns, dual is worth the upgrade. For a dedicated single-material line, single is fine.

What is agitation and do I need it?
Direct-drive agitation is a paddle inside the pot that stirs the paint continuously — essential for metallic paints, high-solids finishes, and any coating that settles. If you spray latex, water-based, metallic base coats, or high-solids urethanes, get an agitated pot. Non-agitated versions work for clear coats, thin lacquers, and stains that don't separate.

Are Binks tank liners required?
Not required, but they turn a 30-minute cleanup into a 30-second cleanup. Liners drop into the pot, hold the paint, and pull out when you're done — no scrubbing zinc-plated interiors. PT-78 fits 2.8-gallon pots, PTL-408 fits 5-gallon, PTL-412 fits 10-gallon.

Can I use Binks pots with a DeVilbiss or CA Technologies gun?
Yes. All industry-standard pressure pots use 1/4" NPT air + fluid connections, so any conventional or HVLP pressure-feed gun (Binks, DeVilbiss, C.A. Technologies, Graco, Sharpe) will pair with any Binks pot. The outfit bundles (Binks 98C-357, 98-3156, etc.) just save you from buying pot + gun + hose separately.

What CFM does a Binks pressure pot need?
The pot itself needs almost no air — it just needs pressurization (typically 5-30 PSI). Your CFM requirement is driven by the gun you connect to it. A conventional pressure-feed gun typically pulls 10-15 CFM at 30-50 PSI, so a 5-7.5 HP two-stage compressor is a reasonable minimum for continuous spraying.
