WAIT...what does this buffer thing do???
Our polyurethane Yellow Jacket Bolt Buffers replaces the steel bolt stop pin (Ruger part #b-46) in your Ruger 10/22 rifle.
It is an amazingly easy part to swap out, and we have full easy to use instructions with detailed photos on our sister site at www.Ruger22.com.
What will the Yellow Jacket BOLT Buffer do? ...............
It takes the "sting" out of shooting your Ruger!
It will make your rifle smooth and much more quiet, and remove that annoying/nerve rattling "clack noise" when the force of the shell pounds the bolt back into the factory standard steel pin.
The buffer eliminates that shocking metal to metal contact and protects not only your receiver, but also your expensive scope optics from damage and misalignment.
In fact, after installing the Yellow Jacket Bolt Buffer, you will be able to lightly place the sole of your finger on the top of your receiver (or on your optics), fire a round, and feel absolutely NO SHOCK OR VIBRATION OF ANY KIND!!!
IT IS AMAZING!!
While some claims have been made that buffers also protect against receiver cracks, to be honest, we have never really seen that condition.
But the money it WILL save in optics, piece of mind and your nerves is money well spent, especially with our lifetime warranty!
Now wait just a darn minute!!!
What makes the Yellow Jacket better than all those other buffers on the market, or better than a chuck of plastic tube from my corner hardware store?
That is easy......Research!!!!
Here are the facts:
We have spent a lot of time researching buffer types and materials, from solids (of various materials) to two part systems (pin and cover buffers). After months of experimenting and testing, we concluded that a solid polyurethane composed of a specialized formula would make the best buffer.
Polyurethane offers many advantages that conventional rubbers, metals, and plastics don't:
polyurethane advantages...
... vs. rubber ... vs. metal ... vs. plastic high abrasion resistance
high cut & tear resistance
superior load bearing
thick section molding
colorability
oil resistance
ozone resistance
radiation resistance
broader hardness range
castable nature
low pressure tooling lightweight
noise reduction
abrasion resistance
less expensive fabrication
corrosion resistance
resilience
impact resistance
flexibility
easily moldable
non-conductive
non-sparking high impact resistance
elastic memory
abrasion resistance
noise reduction
variable coefficient of friction
resilience
thick section molding
lower cost tooling
low temperature resistance
cold flow resistance
radiation resistance
Polyurethane elastomers are only one type of a large family of elastic polymers.
There are 14 types currently in use (the other 13 are called conventional rubber).
With-in the polyurethane elastomers are actually hundreds of formulas for specific needs.
Many people have been led to believe, that the durometer rating of a polyurethane (a scale that measures hardness) is the ONLY scale to measure one buffer from another.
Nothing could be further from the truth!
MANY factors directly affect your buffers performance and lifespan.
You can (for example) have two buffers with the same durometer rating, but one will be a top performer, while the other will suffer from brittleness at cold temperatures, have an inferior tear strength, a poor resilience factor, low tensile strength and be suseptible to solvents used in everyday gun maintainance.
Again, we stress that hardness alone is NOT an adequate specification for any rubber formulation, but particularly for polyurethanes.
Observe the difference between a TDI Ether System and an MDI Ester at the same hardness:
BOTH MATERIALS ARE THE SAME HARDNESS, Durometer A95 TDI ETHER (Material A) MDI ESTER (Material B) 100% Modulus, psi (Mpa) 2170 (15.0) 1900 (13.1) 200% Modulus, psi 3130 (21.6) 2220 (15.3) 300% Modulus, psi 5230 (36.0) 2960 (20.4) Tensile Strength, psi 5850 (40.0) 7220 (50.0) Elongation Break, % 320 450 Die C Tear Strength, pli (kN/m) 500 (87.0) 780 (136.0) D-470 Split Tear Strength, pli (kN/m) 150 (26.0) 176 (31.0)
It's obvious from the data that the two elastomers are not the same, even though the hardness is the same.
Labs have ways to identify (with spectrographic and chemical analysis) the structure of elastomers at the same hardness, but the process is costly and time consuming.
Actually, they are both excellent materials but with widely different engineering properties.
One will perform better in some applications and the other will perform well also, but in different applications.
The data in the above table was produced in laboratory tensile tests.
For most industrial applications, you need to know how they behave in dynamic situations and how they will endure the application's environment. Very few polyurethane applications would require a part to be strained in tension 100%. Most applications operate in a tensile strain range of 10-30% or less.
The table (above) shows only the first strain cycle. The cycled stress-strain test (below) shows a big difference between the two. After 10-20 strain cycles, equilibrium is achieved and performance is reproducible.
The different behavior tells us that an application as a buffer would benefit from the consistent spring rate and ability to handle reasonable loads of the TDI-Ether (Material A).
On the other hand, a chain sprocket for example, with relatively low loads might benefit from the more forgiving flexibility of the MDI Ester (Material B).
WAIT...What about Nitrile or some of the other elestomers I might have laying around at work, won't they work as well?
NOPE!
And here is the proof against these other common elestomers.
THE BOTTOM LINE....
We here at Armed America L.L.C. Have invested the time and energy to bring you a powerful quality well researched product!
After ripping through reams of research, we finally narrowed our hunt for the perfect formula down to 7 and had samples made in those formulas.Note: None of these colored samples are to the best of our knowledge, the same as any existing commercially available product. No comparisons to existing products are implied.
After subjecting these samples to very harsh testing, we ended up with our special Yellow Jacket Sample.Then just to be sure, we went to the range and ran a total of 5 bricks of .22lr ammo through our test rifle. after 2,500 rounds of bolt smacking energy, we removed our test sample and knew we had a winner. Our sample had absolutly no marks on it. It was like it was brand new and fresh from its package. We have formulated it to last a lifetime, and we back it with our unconditional warrenty.
If it fails, we will replace it....Period.
If you do not agree this is the best bolt buffer you have ever used, return it to us and we will refund your money! Also, if it ever fails OR even wears, simply return it and we will send you a replacement at no charge.
You will not find a warranty that good anywhere else!
