Is it harmful to high air pressure O-ring? I think most o-rings are rubber base. I mean is it good for air gun?

To be honest, I am not sure. What I would investigate is the type of rubber (there are a bunch of types of pliable plastics and rubbers that are used), and see if that rubber reacts chemically with the solvents. Generally, if you contact the company, they will tell you what type of rubber and you can look up the reactivity with different chemicals after you have the info. Sorry I could not help more.

The "CLP" stands for "Cleaner, Lubricant, Protectant". The "Cleaner" part is meant to break-up carbon residue left by firearms cartridges, and is probably not good for an air gun application.

I have put it on rubber many times (but not necessarily on an O ring or air gun), and no degradation from what I can see. You may want to check with the air guns mfg though. I'd think it should be ok though.

Break Free CLP is silicone. That means it's one of the most inert, non-flammable and non-corrosive substances made. In short, it's fine for your air gun. I will however, advise you to look lubrication and cleaning procedures up in your manufacturer's catalog, because using some product other than recommended can void your air gun's warranty. I know it's hard to "read the directions" but it really can pay off!

If you have a spring piston air gun, do not lubricate piston or spring with anything but airgun oil. It's non-flammable/non-combustible. Dieseling can occur with the wrong oil, possibly damaging the air rifle.

These shells are great for spring loaded UHC guns but for any gas/CO2 powered guns I'd definitely advise against these. Most brands will have their own shells so look for those-- usually under recommended purchases. They should be metal though, for CO2. Or at least tougher plastic than these. These are made for spring loaded air guns

It should have a black rubber O-ring. Is it missing? And I was not impressed with this unit at all.

Decent rubber O rings can always be found for cheap at a good local hardware store. I'm guessing $2 tops for a good quality O ring, and that's probably a liberal estimate.

Well, you're not supposed to use metal BB's with airsoft guns, and I think in the manual it says that using metal BB's will damage the internals.

Maybe. I have been able to reach 50 shots. But sometimes my install of new cartridges is poor so I get leaks. A problem for me is the o- ring broke. Can't find replacement purchase options on Umarex website or anywhere. Went to hardware store to try and find similar size - results have been poor trying different sizes. Get leaks and loss of cartridges. I really like the gun otherwise. If anyone knows where to get replacement o-rings please advise.

o-rings and plastics will last longer if you avoid using petroleum lubricants, I would use silicon grease.

The pump has an 'O-Ring' at its base. With household vinegar that I use to restrict growth of moss on my brick patio, the O-ring failed because of the vinegar, according to the manufacturer. They sent me a new O-ring, and Amazon sent me a new sprayer. Maybe caustic liquids will not harm the O-ring, but I don't know. The stem of the sprayer, outside the gallon container is black. It could be ABS, I don't know.

I'm afraid I can't answer that--I don't have high water pressure myself. You might try checking your hardware or plumbing supply stores for O-rings that fit in place of the flat rubber washers. They are available for garden hose fittings, and really make a difference over flat washers.

There is no 'leaking issue'; it is exclusively an 'operator error' situation; either the o-ring dislodged or damaged from being over-tightened. You should only twist approximately 20-30° (1/8 of a turn) once the seal makes first contact! Any more will damage the o-ring over time. I have had mine leak only after an 'over tighten' incident from my over-zealous wife that either caused the o-ring to fall out or dislodge.

You must see what the Crossman recommends. Not all guns can use the oil it will destroy the o rings.

I have never lubricated the o-ring, just made sure the seat is *absolutely* clean and dry before I screw the housing back together. But the only other place I've ever dealt with o-rings is underwater camera housings, so I may be missing something on these Big Blue cylinders.

Would not use on a dive if o ring is exposed. I was not aware they made an extension for this light. Check with company for solution.

Loosely for this product, the terms may be used interchangeably. An O-ring is Normally comprised of a round rubber material formed looped into an "o" shape. Gasket material is normally flat and in this case shaped into an "o". Gaskets seal two flat surfaces while an O-ring seal off two devices in which one slips inside of the other.

I have had mine running since the day I received it and have never had a bit of problem with the O-ring seals!!! It doesn't leak at all!! They are tight and can be a little hard to get back on at times but I like the way the barrels work!!!

Yes, the o-rings are sufficient to hold securely. They are tight though and some force and work are required to remove and then reinstall. My wife uses it on both her road and mtn bike. Though it is most often on her road bike. I only have the mtn bike so I zip tied mine. If you move it frequently you will wear out the o-rings, though it will take a long time to do. This is a very high quality product. It will hold up to lots of use. Even switching it out. I would recommend a chopstick or something smooth and round of the sort to remove the o-rings. It will save your fingers and the rings. Hope that helps. Yes, the o-rings are sufficient to hold securely. They are tight though and some force and work are required to remove and then reinstall.

If it is not a broken O-ring, then you might want to see your local paintball store and have them check it out. I've had mine since 2007 and this bad boy goes through O-rings like crazy. That aside, I would check in with the experts. Hope this helps!
