New Designs Turbo Valve Housing still a few weeks out

Posted by paintballtech on April 21, 2010

The Tippmann Turbo Valve Housing  from New DeSigns is still out of stock.  I spoke with New Designs and while they didn’t give a specific reason, they are working on the issue.  Last thing they said was a few weeks.  So that will hopefully put some in our hands for shipping by May 12th.  This is a unique replacement valve and there are no substitutions.  It’s worth waiting for.  You’ll just have to wait a bit longer.  We do have PLENTY on order to clear back orders when they arrive. 

If you’re in a pinch don’t forget that we always have the stock Tippmann Valve 02-V  02-V Tippmann COMPLETE VALVEavailable.  This particular one comes with all the internals so it’s ready to drop in.  You can get a stock valve body only  02-25 Tippmann VALVE BODY (NO INTERNALS)too.

TippmannParts.com Tech Update

Posted by paintballtech on September 10, 2009


NEW TPX PISTOL
CO2 UPGRADE KIT
STRAIGHT FROM TIPPMANN:

New TPX Pistol CO2 Upgrade Kit
Over the past few months, feedback regarding our new TPX Pistol has been overwhelmingly positive. The new product has generated a tremendous amount of interest and excitement among paintball players around the globe. However, an issue regarding the pistol has surfaced.

It appears the dimensions for CO2 cartridges vary far beyond our initial tests, and have resulted in some cartridges not puncturing. Although we tested numerous brands, we have discovered that certain types of cartridges may not puncture on the first pull. If you’ve noticed this issue, please contact us at 1-800-533-4831 or visit www.tippmann.com, click on the CO2 Upgrade Kit link and simply complete the appropriate TPX form with your serial number. We’ll send you a free CO2 Upgrade Kit including a new cap with an adjustable set screw that adjusts for various CO2 cartridge sizes, as well as a new, easy-to-install pin assembly.

If you have experienced any other issues, whether it is velocity, efficiency, or paint breakage related, we encourage you to visit our new TPX Tech Support program on the Tippmann web site to learn more about troubleshooting, installation and maintenance of your TPX Pistol. There are also some helpful tips on how to correctly pick paint and properly load a magazine. And if you can’t find what you’re looking for in the videos, you may always contact our Tech Service Team at 1-800-533-4831, or 1-260-749-6022.
We apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause. We actually became aware of these issues via customer phone calls and paintball forums. We are pleased to offer this free upgrade kit which will make the TPX pistol more adaptable to the many different CO2 cartridges in the marketplace. Thank you for your continued support and ongoing communication – it’s appreciated.

TechT Zero Kick Hammer Installation Guide Update

Posted by paintballtech on May 12, 2009

The newest version of the TechT Zero Kick Hammer for Tippmann Paintball Guns comes packaged with a new hammer drive spring. If you did not receive this drive spring and you think your marker needs it, please contact TechT. They will send you the drive spring for free. If you did not receive one, there is no need to freak out immediately. You may not need it. TechT found that some users’ markers needed a stiffer spring in order to get up to 300FPS. Most markers didn’t, but some did, so they started to include it with the hammer.

With that said, below are the instructions on how to install the hammer. Again, I would first set it up with your stock hammer drive spring. If you can not achieve high enough velocity or your cyclone is not cycling you will then need to swap out your stock spring for the stiffer one from TechT.

If you need to contact TechT for the stiff hammer drive spring please call – 901-405-1848 ex.11

For complete installtion instructions, visit the TechT Zero Kick installation page at http://www.techtpaintball.com/hammer_install.html
