SHS Silenced Bore-Up Piston Head with Bearing — the bore-up diameter, ported for a softer stroke. It will not fit a standard cylinder.

Bore-up cylinders are wider than standard, so they need a piston head cut to that diameter. This is that part, in the silenced pattern.

The porting gives air a route through the head instead of letting it slam flat against a solid face. That takes some of the crack out of the shot and softens the stop at the end of travel.

A thrust bearing sits behind it so the spring turns rather than winds. None of that counts for anything unless the diameter is right to begin with.

Good to know before you buy

Bore-up is a cylinder decision, not a piston head one. If you have not already fitted a bore-up cylinder then this is not the head you are looking for.

Frequently asked questions

Will this go into a standard cylinder?
No. Bore-up heads are a larger diameter and will not enter a standard AEG cylinder at all.

What does the porting do for the noise?
It gives the air somewhere to go through the head rather than compressing hard against a solid face, which takes the edge off the report.

Do I need a bore-up cylinder head too?
Bore-up builds are a matched set. Cylinder, cylinder head and piston head all want to be specified for the same bore.

⚠ Bore-up cylinders only: our supplier is explicit that bore-up piston heads are not compatible with standard AEG cylinders, and forcing one in is how a cylinder gets scored.
💡 Titan Forge Airsoft tip: Measure the cylinder before ordering if the gun arrived already built. Bore-up is not always obvious from the outside. Browse pistons and piston heads.
