This piston silicone sleeve is a kind of Specialized Equipment Accessories. It’s used in airgun piston assemblies.It’s designed in a cylindrical shape. This shape lets it fit tightly over the piston. It matches the piston’s contour exactly. One end of the sleeve has a narrowed opening. Or it might have a protruding structure. This part is for fastening the sleeve securely. It stops the sleeve from slipping or shifting out of place when the airgun is working. The other end of the sleeve is open. This makes installation easy. It also lets the sleeve fit smoothly with the internal parts of the airgun. The sleeve has uniform wall thickness. This makes sure stress is spread evenly across the sleeve. It makes the sleeve more durable. It also helps the sleeve resist changing shape.
1.Functions
1)Sealing Performance:The sleeve works like a Mini Sealed Valve. It seals the gaps between the piston and the chamber wall well. This stops gas from leaking. When the airgun is being charged or fired, high-pressure gas is transferred efficiently. This helps the airgun keep consistent power and accuracy.
2)Shock Absorption:When the airgun is fired, there’s impact energy. The sleeve absorbs this energy and eases the impact. It reduces vibration and noise. The sleeve is elastic. This elasticity lessens wear between different components. It makes the airgun run more smoothly. It also makes the airgun last longer.
3)Abrasion Protection:The sleeve acts as a protective layer. It reduces direct friction between the piston and other components. This helps the airgun keep consistent performance. It also makes the parts more durable.
2.Performance Characteristics
1)Superior Sealing:The sleeve has high elasticity. Even when the pressure changes, it keeps sealing well. After being used many times in cycles, only a tiny amount of gas leaks out.
2)Aging Resistance:It can stand being exposed to UV light, oxygen, and changes in temperature. It won’t get hard, crack, or have its performance get worse over time.
3)Temperature Tolerance:It can work in a wide range of temperatures. When it’s hot, it won’t get soft or change shape. When it’s cold, it stays flexible.
4)Mechanical Strength and Flexibility:It has a good balance of strength and flexibility. It can handle the stress from operation. It can also adapt to movement. This makes sure the sleeve is installed securely and works reliably.
5)Low Gas Permeability:The material of the sleeve stops most gas from seeping through. This helps keep the pressure stable. It makes sure each shot from the airgun has consistent performance.
6)Eco-Friendly and Safe:It’s made from non-toxic silicone. It meets environmental and safety standards. It doesn’t pose any risk to users or the surrounding environment.
This component works like a Sealed Fluid Direction Control Valve—it guides and seals air flow. It also uses the same principles as a Sealed Diaphragm Pump to manage pressure dynamically. In applications where gas is handled precisely, it also supports functions similar to Sealed Fluid Transfer Pumps and Micro Sealed Hydraulic Pumps. As one of the essential Custom Equipment Parts, Specialty Device Components, Equipment-Specific Fittings, and Niche Machinery Accessories, it makes pneumatic systems work better and more reliably.
