SHS Silenced Cylinder Head for a Version 3 Gearbox — the damped Version 3 head, for people who notice the noise. Match it to your nozzle, not just your gearbox.

A silenced cylinder head carries damping material on the face the piston head strikes, which softens the sharp knock a gearbox makes at the end of each stroke.

On a Version 3 shell, which is what AK and G36 builds run, that impact is the loudest mechanical noise the gun produces after the gears themselves.

It will not make the gun quiet. It changes the character of the sound and takes some shock out of the assembly, which is worth having in its own right.

Good to know before you buy

Expect a change in the note rather than silence. The gears and the motor are still doing their own thing.

Frequently asked questions

How much quieter will my gun be?
Less than the name suggests. It softens the piston impact, which is one noise among several the gearbox makes.

Does damping cost me any power?
Not meaningfully. The damping sits on the impact face rather than in the air path.

Which guns run a Version 3 shell?
AK and G36 pattern builds most commonly, though other platforms use it too.

⚠ Silenced is a relative term: the damping only addresses the piston impact, and a noisy motor or poorly shimmed gear set will still be audible.
💡 Titan Forge Airsoft tip: If noise is the goal, look at shimming and the motor height too. The head is only part of it. Browse gearbox parts.
