- Reduce stress on your gears
- Improves platform's consistency
The GATE AOE spacer is an ideal and straightforward upgrade for your Airsoft AEG. Positioned behind the piston head, it helps achieve the optimal angle of engagement (AOE). This refers to the angle at which the first tooth of the piston engages with the sector gear's teeth. Incorrect AOE can lead to excessive wear on the piston guide rails and the first tooth of the piston.
Proper AOE adjustment greatly extends the lifespan of the piston and helps prevent jams, which are often caused by incorrect alignment. It also improves FPS consistency by allowing smoother and more accurate gear engagement during each shot. The spacer is compatible with pistons that have a 5 mm centring hole and piston heads with a 5 mm centring spline.
Upgrade your Airsoft AEG with the GATE AOE spacer to enjoy more reliable performance and extended piston durability through countless skirmishes.

Parts Fitting
Upgrades and Downgrades should only be undertaken by experienced players, or Airsoft Technicians. Please note, changing any internal parts of a weapon voids its warranty unless done in-house by our staff.
Please ensure that when fitting parts the part purchased is the correct part, as once a part has been fitted we cannot accept return.
We do know that players love to tinker, so we're here to give you help should you require it, and if needed you can get in touch with our workshop for more help!
Unique Parts
Please note that some parts may be unique to a specific brand of weapon. For example: Parts for an ASG M4A1 may not fit an ICS M4A1.
Parts from the same brand typically have a high chance of fitting, though be warned, some replicas use unique parts, so please ensure the part will fit before you attempt to fit it.
If you require help with fitting any parts feel free to get in touch with us via our Contact Us Page.
