Frequently Asked Questions

What Do Motors Do in Airsoft?

An airsoft gun motor directly affect the trigger response and fire rate, and will have a big impact on the performance of your airsoft gun.

What is a Tappet Plate?

A tappet plate is an important part of your airsoft gun's gearbox. It plays a role in controlling the back and forth motion of the air nozzle, which in turn helps to feed the BBs into the hop-up chamber.

What Problems Can a Tappet Plate Cause in Airsoft?

If you're using a low-quality tappet plate or the incorrect plate for your gearbox, the BB might not be fed correctly (or at all) into the gun's hop-up chamber.

When Should You Replace a Tappet Plate?

You should replace your gun's tappet place if is becomes damaged, and you'll be able to tell when this has happened if you notice that the gun isn't cycling correctly and BBs are not being fed into the hop-up chamber.

You're welcome to bring your gun along to our Fleet shop, and we can take a look to see whether the tappet plate needs replacing.

You can also choose to upgrade the tappet if you're simply looking for better performance and reliability.

Why Upgrade Your Airsoft Tappet Plate

The tappet plate controls the air nozzle motion which feeds the BB into the gun's hop-up chamber. A better tappet plate can give your gun more consistent feeding and improved durability, especially in high rate-of-fire builds. If your gun is struggling with feeding, a new tappet plate is definitely worth considering. Pair it with a quality nozzle and gear set for the best results.
