Sonicore Valor Piston
A piston, sometimes called a Nielsen device, screws into the back of a pistol suppressor. Most pistol barrels tilt as the action cycles, and the weight of a suppressor can stop that. The piston adds a spring between the suppressor and the barrel so the pistol keeps cycling. Match the piston's thread to your pistol's barrel.
This one fits suppressors that take the Sonicore Valor Piston and barrels threaded 1/2x28.

Sonicore sells this part in 2 thread pitches. They are one product on this page; pick the pitch that matches your barrel in the Builder.
- On the 1/2x28 Valor 9, every component of the piston assembly uses right-hand threads.
- When converting a used suppressor, clean it and re-apply a high-temperature anti-seize (the manual names Loctite LB-8023) to the piston bore, hex and threads.
- The piston ships inside the Valor 9 and is factory lubricated; it is swapped for the fixed-barrel spacer to run a pistol-caliber carbine.
