finally got my hands on a chrono... should reball chrono at the same speed as paint at the same pressure or should i see a lower speed? i think reballs are a little heavier. just so i know what im lookin for in my results

Reballs are much smaller so they would probably chrono slower if you are using the stock barrel.

X rings should only be used on stationary parts such as the inner ring on the can and similarly on a matrix's top hat. they should NOT be used on any moving parts for example the bolt sail or bolt tip of bolts.

wesr · 11-17-2010, 08:48 PM

i didnt use them for the bolt sail or the bolt tip, just the inner can ring and the 2 orings on the plunger, the green 012 and the blue 014.
and really when you think about it they all touch a moving part anyways, it doesnt matter if it is moving or the other sealing surface is moving its all the same forces anyway. plus one of the advantages about them is the resist twisting and blow outs better than a standard oring.... i have looked well into this.

The question is still out there from someone before, where to get these?

I am also interested in your findings. Where are they located?

Thanks..

look up local seal dealers, my local place i got them from was called fluidseal, use yellowpages and look up seal dealers and it should bring something up local for you. or look for somewhere online

Here's the thing.. No local seal dealers. Tried to google it. Came up with squat. I just wanna find somewhere to order them from

Ragin Cajun · 12-24-2010, 03:30 PM

McMasterCarr has them.

icehouse1 · 01-02-2011, 04:53 AM

Here is the number for where I got mine at. (859) 885-4155 This out of KY, but if you can't find them close to you, it is an option.

Don't quote me, but I think it cost me about $9 for 10 of each quad ring, shipped.

redz64 · 01-03-2011, 02:29 PM

I've got some. Pm me.

icehouse1 · 01-16-2011, 09:57 AM

Well, I put air on my NT yesterday and had a leak! I immediately took the quad rings off and everything was fine.

Anyone else had this problem? Any solutions for me?

MorpheusX · 01-17-2011, 03:23 PM

one of your rings is twisted and not seated correctly. try them again, run your nail down the center to make sure the groove is uniform all around and in the middle of the ring.

Any follow up to this? Long term results?

Thanks

MorpheusX · 03-26-2011, 12:26 PM

still using the same set i put on when i originally posted, probably around late oct early november. Not one issue. The gun is currently running at 100psi-105psi, green insert, dwell of 10, at 290 fps.

wesr · 03-26-2011, 12:33 PM

nt10 or 11?

nickdude · 03-26-2011, 05:23 PM

Also was it the 17, 12 and 14?
wondering if the spool 10's would be worth trying?
Thanks
