I'm not dumb insomniac, I know barrel sealers can have o-rings. I have one right now with o-rings. I just was saying that since it didn't it had to be a barrel sealer. If it has o-rings it could be either or, but a chamber sealing one NEEDS o-rings.

A chamber sealing piston doesn't necessarily need O-rings, there just haven't been any without them.

Okay noname, if your so smart, how are you going to make a chamber sealing piston without o-rings. Don't be stupid, it's the only way to separate the pilot from the barrel.

I wasn't saying you were dumb squeaks, I just misunderstood what you said. What you said was right, I just didn't read carefully enough.....and I suppose that makes ME the dumb one lol

that made me crack up,but you are right, we just need someone to invest time and moeny into a chamber sealer without O-rings

Might I reiterate, HOW!!! You can't keep the pressure back without 'em.

Seriously man, I could make one to hold like 5 psi with some sheet rubber and a barrel sealer.

if the pison is a tight enough fit it shouldn't need o rings just some good thick greese to help seal and lubricate

No. Doesn't work that way.
PVC pipe is not perfect. It has many bumps on the inside and you will never make a piston that can seal on the inside and is able to move without o-rings.
Honestly, is it all that hard to stick some o-rings on there?!

well....If you don't have a lathe/table saw etc and have no time to use a file,you shouldn't build a chamber sealer

Wait a QEV is a chamber sealing piston valve and it doesnt have a O-ring,or is it barrel sealing?Im not sure but if it is then there is your answer

its a barrel sealer without o-rings, Its actually more like a diaphragm valve but the phragm is like a flexible cone with a flat spot as a sealing face
