Omega/Eclipse Piston Washers?

[mrto]

Can anyone tell me for certain whether the Omega and Eclipse piston washers are identical and interchangeable,please?

ALso,does the later parachute type for the Eclipse on the Knibbs website also fit the earlier piston as an upgrade for the PTFE one?

Whoops ... got it wrong, senior moment ... looked the Excel not Eclipse. Sorry
Cheers, Phil

Now do not take this as absolute, but: Chambers have both piston washers under the same reference number PW067. That is a good indication that they are the same part for each rifle.
I have not looked at Knibbs.

Omega PW067 Eclipse PW068 according to the diagrams I am looking at?

[mrto]

Knibbs have early and late Eclipse piston washers listed and their parachute type listed separately to the Omega parachute washer,so I guess they're indeed different and incompatible.

I'll call and check with them tomorrow,though.

The webley omega excel Vulcan stingray victor all use the same piston seal fitting all use the same size seal and either the older ptfe or later parachute type can be fitted the eclipse uses a bigger seal ptfe but later parachute type from john knibbs will also fit.
