FWB C55P cylinder main seal replacement question

Post by AngliaUSA »

One of my cylinders just blew out a seal / o ring .. see the attached pics

I have never seen a green o ring with a flat back before .. probably just from age and taking a set in the tube ..

do I need a specific factory replacement part or can I use a matching standard nitrile black O ring with silicone lube instead ...

your thoughts ?

If I was you I would buy proper seal, it will last another 10 years.

Thanx for the advice and link .. my Pistol is the FWB C55P

5 shot - Compressed air -

Anybody know if the same cylinders were used on later year pistols ? If so which models have interchangeable cylinders ?

Thanx much.

The cylinder is interchangeable with the FWB P30, P34, and P40, not sure if it'll fit the P44.
