Safety is non-negotiable when dealing with high-pressure air. The Strike Airsoft 5k PSI Burst Disk is a precision-engineered "fail-safe" for your HPA tank regulator. Designed to rupture if the internal pressure of your tank exceeds 5,000 PSI, this small but mighty component prevents catastrophic failure of your bottle, acting as a crucial relief valve that protects both you and your equipment during the filling process or in extreme heat.
Key Features & Performance
- Standard 3/8-24UNF Thread - The universal industry standard for HPA tank regulators, making it a "drop-in" replacement for most bottles.
- 5,000 PSI Rated - Specifically calibrated to burst at 5k PSI, the standard safety limit for the "high-side" of 3000 PSI and 4500 PSI HPA tanks.
- High-Quality Brass Housing - Built with a robust brass hex-head for easy installation and removal without stripping the threads.
- Copper Rupture Foil - Uses high-grade copper material to ensure a clean, predictable break only when the pressure threshold is exceeded.
- Essential Spare - A low-cost item that can save a shoot day if your current disk fails or shows signs of fatigue.
The "Pro" Take
Every experienced HPA player should carry a couple of these in their tech kit. Burst disks are designed to fail so that your tank doesn't; however, they can occasionally weaken over time due to repeated fill cycles or heat exposure. There is nothing worse than arriving at a site, getting your first 3000 PSI fill, and having a disk "pop" because it was old or corroded. The Strike Airsoft 5k disk is a reliable, high-spec insurance policy for your air rig. It?s a "set and forget" part that provides peace of mind every time you hook up to a compressor.
UK Spec & Site Performance
In the UK, HPA safety is taken very seriously at professional sites like GZ Woodland or Refuge Airsoft. If you are filling your own tanks at a site compressor or using a dive bottle at home, having a fresh, reliable burst disk is paramount. Under UK Health and Safety guidelines, HPA tanks must be within their "hydro-test" date, and a faulty or bypassed burst disk is a major safety violation. This 5k disk ensures your tank remains compliant with standard UK site safety briefings. Whether you are playing a long Milsim at Copehill Down or a fast-paced CQB session, this disk ensures that even if your tank sits in a hot car or kit bag, the pressure is managed safely.
Friendly FAQ
When should I replace my burst disk?
You should replace it immediately if it has "popped" (ruptured), but also if you notice any bulging in the copper center or if there is visible corrosion around the hex-head.
Can I use a 5k disk on a 1.8k output?
No. Most regulators have two disks: a 1.8k disk for the "low-pressure" (output) side and a 5k or 7.5k disk for the "high-pressure" (tank) side. This 5k disk is specifically for the high-pressure side of 3000/4500 PSI tanks.
Do I need any special tools to install this?
Just a standard adjustable spanner or a hex-socket. Ensure your tank is **completely empty** before attempting to unscrew the old disk.
Is this compatible with my Tipmann or Empire tank?
Yes, as long as the regulator uses the standard 3/8-24UNF thread (which 99% of airsoft and paintball regulators do), this is the correct part.
