Page 3 of 4 Updated results for the prometheus hard piston After removal of the second piston tooth, the new modified Prometheus piston was reinstalled into our testing platform, and sent through 1000 cycles using our test M140 spring. Here are the results. Prometheus Hard Piston (Modified)
With the slight modifications, the piston performed extremely well, easily handling the M140 spring without much visible wear. The small nick on the third tooth did not result from the test, but was due to a slip of the Dremel tool during removal of the second tooth. One thing of note here is that the second tooth is tricky to remove if the side reinforcement rails are to be preserved. A steady hand and a precise tip is definitely necessary.
