Choosing the Right Line Marking Machine
The Graco line marking machines range stocked here covers every unit class, from a single battery walk-behind line striper through self-propelled, ride-on and truck-mount platforms. Pick by application (carpark, council street, highway, runway, sports field, mine site), by coating (waterborne paint, thermoplastic, cold applied plastic, tape), and by whether the work needs ATS 4110 Clause 6 capability for public-road compliance.
Battery walk-behind. The LineLazer ES 500 (1-gun manual) suits occasional carpark restripes; LineLazer ES 1000 (lithium DC, 0.6 GPM, 1-2 gun QuikSelect) handles fleet carpark and council yard work; LineLazer V ES 2000 (battery, MaxPower DC + Advantage Drive, Endurance Chromex pump, J-Log USB proof-of-job, 1+1 manual + auto or 2 auto with LazerGuide) covers mid-tier council. For sports fields, athletic tracks and turf paint the FieldLazer ES100 (60V FlexVolt battery, 4.5 LPM, 19 L hopper, SG3 striping gun) is purpose-built for low-pressure delivery that does not over-soak the grass.
Petrol walk-behind and self-propelled. The LineLazer 3400 (Honda GX120 4 HP, 0.75 GPM, max 0.027 inch tip) is the long-running carpark workhorse and the entry-petrol airless line striper of choice. The LineLazer V 200HS HP Auto (Honda GX200 6.5 HP, 2.15 GPM, max 0.047 inch tip on the 1-gun variant, LazerGuide 1700 start-stop laser) and 200HS HP Reflective (dual auto guns plus dual 120 lb pressurised bead tanks) handle council long-line and ATS 4110 work. The LineLazer V 250SPS (Honda GX390 13 HP, 2.5 GPM, 95 L hopper) self-propelled unit covers larger flow and longer runs as a line marking trolley you push or ride.
Cold applied plastic and thermoplastic. Signalised intersections, bus lanes and ATS 4110 sections demanding 5+ year life run on the LineLazer V 200MMA 1:1 HP Reflective, a walk-behind plural-component cold applied plastic system at 3,300 PSI (228 bar / 22,800 kPa) with at-the-gun mixing via the Fusion ProConnect Gun and Air-Purge between cycles. Thermoplastic crossings, piano keys, arrows and numerals run on the Graco ThermoLazer ProMelt 4 inch SmartDie II (4-chamber melting, 100,000 BTU heat, 4-torch die heat) or the GO Thermoplastic Screed Box for hand-applied work in 100, 150, 200 and 300 mm widths.
Truck-mount and ride-on. Highway, regional council fleet, B-double depot, runway and taxiway work runs on the truck-mount Graco RoadPak module (4-gun capable, belt-mounted with Taper-Lock pulley swap for drive-train matching) plus a custom GO truck build with Skip-Line NZ camera and laser layout for runway-grade precision. For ride-on line marker operation on any walk-behind unit, the LineDriver attachments (LineDriver ES electric 12-hour Eco-Mode, LineDriver HD with electric or pull-start petrol, 16 km/h forward / 10 km/h reverse) reduce operator fatigue on long shifts and let one operator run paint, bead and pattern control without walking.
