Cylinders & Kits

Cylinders & Kits – For optimal compression and consistent power

Cylinders & Kits form the basis of the airtightness and compression system of every bolt-action sniper. A high-quality cylinder or complete set improves airflow, stabilises your FPS output and increases the durability of your internals. In this category, you will find individual cylinders and complete upgrade kits that can significantly improve the efficiency, power and precision of your bolt-action platform. Ideal for players looking for maximum performance, both in woodland environments and at long distances.

Why choose cylinders & kits?

A good cylinder ensures smooth internal movement, minimal resistance and optimal air pressure build-up. Complete kits combine cylinders with cylinder heads, O-rings and sometimes pistons, making the compression system as a whole more efficient. Thanks to materials such as stainless steel or anodised aluminium, these parts offer long-term reliability, high stability and consistent FPS output, even when playing with powerful springs or skirmishing intensively.

What can you find in this category?

• Separate cylinders for bolt-action platforms, designed for optimal air displacement and minimal friction
• Complete cylinder kits with O-rings, heads and sealed components for maximum airtightness
• Cylinder models made from durable materials such as stainless steel or lightweight aluminium
• Platform-specific parts for VSR-10, L96, SSG variants and other bolt-action systems

Who is it suitable for?

This category is ideal for technical builders who want to refine their compression system, players looking for more power and stability, and snipers who want to upgrade their bolt-action configuration for consistent long-range performance. Also suitable for users who want to fine-tune their FPS output without compromising reliability.

Frequently asked questions

Are sniper cylinders universally compatible?

No, cylinders are platform-specific. Always check compatibility with your sniper platform.

What is the difference between a separate cylinder and a complete kit?

A separate cylinder only replaces the tube section, while a kit includes multiple components for a completely renewed compression system.

Does the material (stainless steel or aluminium) make much difference?

Yes, stainless steel cylinders are heavier but extremely wear-resistant, while aluminium cylinders are lighter and often offer smoother internal movement.

When should I replace my cylinder?

When you experience air pressure loss, inconsistent FPS or visible wear on the inner wall or seals.

Buying guide

• Check compatibility with your bolt-action platform
• Determine whether you need a separate cylinder or complete kit for your upgrade goal
• Pay attention to material selection, internal finish and wear resistance
• Choose kits with high-quality O-rings for more stable airtightness
• Combine your cylinder with a suitable piston for a complete compression system

Top tip: For optimal precision, combine your upgrade with a high-quality hop-up bucking and a spring & guide set for maximum pressure stability.

Strategically combine Cylinders & Kits with categories such as pistons, hop-up buckings, inner barrels, springs & guides, maintenance products and technical tools. This allows you to create a fully balanced compression system that takes power, stability and precision to the next level.

With Cylinders & Kits, you are choosing reliability, durable build quality and a compression system that allows your bolt-action sniper to deliver consistent top performance.
