Description
Action Army Type 96 Cylinder Kit (B02-006)
This Action Army cylinder kit, part code B02-006, is an upgrade cylinder set for Type 96 spring sniper rifles. Action Army is well known for its Type 96 platform and upgrade parts, and this kit replaces the cylinder assembly with a precision-made, coated component designed for smoother, more consistent operation.
The cylinder is at the heart of a spring sniper rifle’s performance: it houses the piston and spring, and how well it seals and how smoothly the piston moves have a direct effect on consistency and cocking feel. This kit suits players building up a Type 96 who want a quality replacement for a worn or standard cylinder.
What’s in the box
- Cylinder set
Compatibility
Designed for the Action Army Type 96 platform and listed for Maruzen-style Type 96 rifles. Fit on other Type 96 clones can vary, and not all bolt handle designs are compatible with every cylinder type, so check your rifle’s make and version before ordering, or ask us for advice.
Care and maintenance
Keep the cylinder clean and apply a small amount of silicone grease suitable for airsoft internals to the piston O-ring when servicing. Avoid petroleum-based lubricants, which can damage seals. Check fixings periodically, as they can work loose with use.
Who is it for?
Type 96 owners and technicians who want a quality Action Army replacement cylinder for a rebuild or upgrade.
Please note: Professional installation is recommended. Other internal parts and the rifle are not included.
