FX Carbon Air Cylinder, 300 cc

The FX Carbon 300 cc air cylinder is a compact carbon fibre air bottle for FX air rifles. At only 185 mm long and weighing 370 g, it is made for setups where the rifle needs to stay short and light – for example a compact hunting or pest control rifle that is carried a lot.

Carbon fibre is both strong and light, which is why a carbon bottle can hold a given volume of air at far less weight than an aluminium or steel cylinder. The supplier does not state which FX models the cylinder fits or what working pressure it is rated for – feel free to contact us before buying so we can confirm that it fits your rifle.

Short and light air bottle

The 300 cc cylinder is the choice when mobility matters more than the number of shots per fill.

• 300 cc volume: Less air than the 480 and 580 cc cylinders, but enough for a short session or a hunt where a few accurate shots are what matter.
• 185 mm length: The short bottle keeps the rifle's overall length down, making it easier to handle in dense terrain and from a hide.
• 370 g weight: The carbon fibre construction gives a very low weight, which you notice when the rifle has to be carried for long periods.
• Carbon fibre: The composite material is strong for its weight and does not corrode like steel.
• Part of FX's carbon range: FX offers cylinders in several sizes, so you can choose the balance between weight and air volume to suit your use.

Maintenance and safety

• Only fill with clean, dry compressed air and never above the pressure stated on the cylinder and in your air rifle's manual.
• Check O-rings and threads before fitting, and follow the air rifle's manual for removing and fitting the cylinder.
• Avoid knocks, drops and direct heat. A cylinder with visible damage should not be filled until it has been inspected.
• Store the cylinder dry and at room temperature, and store the air rifle unloaded and out of reach of children.
