The Importance of High-Grade CO2

For optimal operation and longevity of your airgun, using high-quality CO2 is crucial. A useful tip for CO2 users is to apply a drop of RWS Chamber Lube or another airgun valve oil to the tip of each CO2 capsule before installation. This practice can significantly extend the life of your valves and o-rings, helping to prevent leaks and potentially saving you from costly service calls.

Why Choose Umarex CO2 Capsules?

Umarex CO2 capsules are known for their superior performance and longevity compared to many other brands. They consistently receive 5-star reviews and are recognized for their critical importance in maintaining airgun performance. The cleanliness of CO2 directly impacts the life of your airgun’s valve and seals. Dirty CO2 can result in reduced velocities and fewer shots per cylinder.

Umarex and Walther-branded CO2 capsules are high-grade and specifically designed for airguns. The quality of CO2 varies significantly between brands and manufacturers, making it challenging to determine the cleanest and highest quality without testing each one. Cartridges are subject to size, weight, and temperature standards, but there are no regulations regarding CO2 cleanliness or cartridge quality. This variability means that using lesser quality CO2 can lead to frequent o-ring replacements and valve damage. Remember, you get what you pay for.

Using Umarex CO2 Capsules for Longevity

To extend the life of your airgun, opt for Umarex CO2 capsules. We often see air pistols and paintball markers with clogged valves or deteriorated o-rings and seals due to the use of lower-quality CO2 capsules.

The Impact of Dirty CO2

Low-quality CO2 capsules can be lined with oil and debris, which can cause significant damage to your airgun. Our inspections have shown that the grime inside dirty capsules often matches the contamination found on airgun components. This grime is a primary cause of valve and o-ring failures in airguns serviced for maintenance.

Avoiding Leaks and Damage

A common issue with CO2 guns is leaks caused by poor sealing of the cartridge tip against the o-ring. CO2 cartridges come in various styles, and using the wrong type can lead to leaks. It's important to use CO2 capsules that fit well with your airgun’s valve. For instance, Umarex and Walther CO2 capsules are designed to avoid excessive force during installation, which can damage the gun’s frame or puncture assembly.

Conclusion

Ensuring the quality of your CO2 is crucial for the health of your airgun. With Umarex CO2 capsules, you receive clean, high-grade CO2 that helps maintain your airgun’s performance and longevity. Available in 12-gram and 88-gram cartridges, Umarex CO2 capsules are tested and proven to be clean, ensuring that your airgun valves remain in good condition.
