Does anyone know the piston diameter at the rea of a tx200 piston, the bit that runs in the main body/.
How much space is there between the piston and the main tube 1mil,2mil?.

You wouldn't get much compression with gaps like that. I think you need to be looking in microns.Originally Posted by Risen

Think he means the compression tube that the piston runs in.
Sorry I don't know. Were you thinking of fitting buttons?

waste of money on a tx anyway. the delrin bushes are there already on the piston but the compression tube only needs a polishing to get it smoother.

Buttoning can make the cocking cycle a bit smoother and is better than polishing as you still have metal to metal contact with polishing.
Very easy to do now with the Maccari buttons
I understand the new Pro-Sport has buttons on the compression cylinder to smooth the cocking action.

The back end of the piston has a delrin ring fitted which runs as a sliding fit within the compression tube. I don't know what the clearance "gap" is without the ring.
Sorry.
