Tippmann Power Tube: Replacement Options
The Tippmann paintball guns use a unique internal system to control airflow and deliver a paintball with great accuracy and distance. The Tippmann Power Tube is responsible for housing the valve system and keeping the front and back bolts aligned for firing. It is literally the internal backbone of the Tippmann A5, 98 and Tippmann X-7 paintball guns. The stock A5 power tube is composed of plastic. Although it is a reasonably good part, it can wear, crack and ultimately leak over time. There are replacement power tubes on the market can offer greater reliability over their plastic counterpart. The JCS Red Hot Power Tube, manufactured by our friends at Blackpoint Engineering, is an all aluminum tube that is not only light but strong. It will help stand the test of time, sealing your Tippmann paintball gun from leaks. Simply add your stock valve to the tube. Each tube includes a new Hexadecagon Front Bolt. This bolt offers better ball contact and air distribution over the stock bolt. The Red Hot Tube helps create a better seal, maintaining a consistent pressure resulting in a more efficient, better performing marker. The A5 JCS Red Hot Tube is a top seller among Tippmann A5 and X-7 owners. Dead on Paintball (DOP) also offers reliable replacement power tubes for A5 and 98 Custom users.
Upgrading your Tippmann Power Tube can offer more reliability than the stock plastic tube included with your marker. This will help keep your marker from leaking air during your next outing in the woods! Shop at ROCKSTAR Tactical for all your Tippmann performance upgrades.
