that uses a parachute type seal.
He is out of commission with a severe back injury. Are you going to do the repairs yourself?craigfperry said:thanks for the links this gives me a place to start.
i do know that i do need some lube to remain in the crosshatch to lube the seal.
these seals are for a pellet gun, the maker is Jim Maccari.
What is the barrel made out of? It seems like the surface hardness of the bore is too low.craigfperry said:the other thing that puzzles me is with the 400 grit crosshatch after a few hundred rounds thru the gun the crosshatch is gone and the cylinder walls are polished to a mirror finish.
Grit hone is a process that involves using abrasive materials to polish and smooth the surface of an air cylinder. It is important because it removes any imperfections or roughness on the cylinder's surface, which can affect its performance and efficiency.
The correct grit hone for an air cylinder depends on factors such as the material of the cylinder, the desired surface finish, and the type of air pressure it will be subjected to. It is best to consult with a professional or refer to the manufacturer's recommendations for the most suitable grit hone.
No, it is important to use a grit hone specifically designed for air cylinders. Using the wrong type of grit hone can damage the cylinder's surface or compromise its functionality.
The frequency of grit honing depends on how often the air cylinder is used and the level of wear and tear it experiences. It is recommended to perform a grit hone whenever the cylinder shows signs of surface imperfections or roughness.
Grit honing is not necessary for all types of air cylinders. For example, stainless steel cylinders are generally smoother and more resistant to wear, so they may not require grit honing as frequently as other materials.
