Lightweight cylinder HW 100 carbine recommendation

[Alakar]

Have a look on Blackpool air rifles Facebook page .
They advertised one back in November .

Have a look at hw100tuning.co.uk
Their titanium cylinder is the one to have. Either with or without the optional reg.
Stronger and lighter than aluminium and without the need for inspection every 20 mins to check its not going to kill you ��
Advantage is it also retains the factory look and fits stocks like it should.

Just had a look on their web page and they've sold out of everything. I think there's a waiting list for cylinders, although I could be wrong.

I have the A&M cylinders two of them in fact and they have been ok .
This year one started leaking so sent it off to A&M to sort out , when it came back still leaking ,off it went again then get a phone call saying the tube had split due to over filling ,Which never happened on my part ,but A&M are good and sent me a brand new cylinder back free of charge

A club member and friend bought this off that there internet web auction site brand new for his HW100. On the first fill, after fitting his spare ends, at 150 BAR it split from top to bottom. He was lucky not to lose his hand. After he had come back from the toilet he rang the supplier. From what I gather they tried to tell him, an ex engineer, that he had over filled it. He got a refund. Motto: Buyer beware. Cheap isn't always best.

we all know which auction site you refer to, but that needs much more facts to verify the above comments, where bought exactly,an make, an any more info.(even it it is "my mate made it in the shed")

Had a look for lighter cylinder for my hw100kt and went for the Ratworks one , tbh I thought the weights were very misleading as I think some were for the tube and some for the complete assembly , all I could deduce were they came in half the weight of the hw cylinder

Thanks for the replies.

Nobody here having experience with the Fenton and Rat Works cylinders?
I don't want to spend more than 200/250 quids for titanium or V-Mach tubes...

The actual tube from HW100TUNING is actually only £160 for a carbine, when you start getting the in tube reg etc it's more money and the one that split is one of the suppliers you mention.

as far as i am aware the V-Mach tubes are not for carbines

Lets hope it lasts.

A&M Cylinder Failure

[senor-cojones]

Also had an A+M cylinder on my carbine and it was good, no issues. Only reason I swapped was i had a Ratworks tune and had their cylinder too, which is also good.

A&M Cylinder Failure

Is that where it's designed to fail if it's over filled?
