It also eliminates potential\u00a0<strong>feeding issues<\/strong>\u00a0while maintaining perfect sealing between the nozzle and hop-up rubber. This innovation is particularly appreciated by owners of V2 gearboxes; V3 gearboxes are already designed with a larger nozzle guide travel compared to V2.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Unique Cylinder Head Mounting System in gearbox:<\/strong><br \/>This is truly a universal cylinder head for V2 and V3 gearboxes from various manufacturers. Thanks to the\u00a0<strong>defined clearance between the head and gearbox<\/strong>, you can customize the cylinder head to fit any gearbox. This ensures smooth operation of the entire air system with\u00a0<strong>no loss of performance<\/strong>\u00a0and other issues leading to premature wear of parts.<br \/><strong>Improperly seated and wobbling cylinder heads allow too much axial deviation of the nozzle<\/strong>, resulting in various problems (performance loss, inconsistent performance, nozzle jamming in the hop-up chamber, feeding problems, etc.). Lastly, uneven contact of the piston head with the cylinder head stop, which can lead to the destruction of the piston head and, consequently, the piston.
