Airtech Studios AEG Gearbox V2 to V9 – Gearbox Install Kit
The Airtech Studios Gearbox Installation Kit (GIK) is a set of clips that hold the anti-reversal latch and trigger in place while you close up an AEG gearbox. Airtech Studios are a UK company known for clever, practical products that solve common airsoft annoyances, and this kit tackles one of the most frustrating parts of gearbox work.
Anyone who has rebuilt a gearbox knows the problem: you get everything lined up, start to close the shell, and the anti-reversal latch or trigger springs out of place. The GIK clips keep those parts where they belong, which saves time and repeated attempts at reassembly.
How it works
The clips fit over the gearbox shell to hold the anti-reversal latch and trigger in position during reassembly. They are made to expand so they can cater for gearbox versions 2 to 9, covering the vast majority of AEGs. The kit also helps keep the motor wires in their channel, so they are not pinched when the shell halves come together.
Once the gearbox is closed and the screws are in, the clips are removed and kept for next time.
Easy to find
The clips are made from strong, durable nylon plastic in a bright red colour, which makes them easy to spot on a cluttered workbench or in a toolbox.

Compatibility
Designed to expand to fit AEG gearbox versions 2 to 9. It is a workshop tool and is not left in the gearbox once the shell is closed.
Care and maintenance
Wipe off grease after use and keep the clips together in a small bag or box so none go missing. Do not over-stretch them beyond what is needed to fit the gearbox.
Who is it for?
This kit suits players who maintain or upgrade their own AEGs and airsoft techs who regularly open and close gearboxes.
