Abstract

A reversible and quick change nozzle holding tip assembly for spray guns is provided with a base member for attachment to the outlet end of the spray gun which rotatably mounts an adapter piece. A gasket member extends from the outlet end of the spray gun through the base member and adapter piece into contact with a nozzle mount holding a nozzle in a recess in the adapter piece. The nozzle mount is contained in a nozzle mount holder having a bridge portion projecting radially outwardly of the adapter and terminating in a second nozzle mount containing a second nozzle. The nozzle mount holder is both reversible to invert a given nozzle and invertible to insert the second nozzle. A clamping or cover nut includes a quick lock thread mesh with the adapter piece to clamp the nozzle mount in position in the adapter piece in engagement with the gasket.
