Product Description
PolarStar | V2 Hop-up Thing Gearbox Lip (0.275" Silver for JACK/F2)
The PolarStar V2 Hop Up Thing Gearbox Lip in Silver is a replacement lip for the PolarStar Hop Up Thing, sized for the nozzles on PolarStar JACK and F2 engines. It supports the nozzle from underneath, which cuts down on nozzle deflection and helps with the problem known as mid cap syndrome.
The Silver lip has a 0.275 inch inner diameter, which leaves about 0.0025 inches of clearance per side for a JACK or F2 nozzle. A snug fit like this holds the nozzle steadier than the larger lip that comes in the box with the Hop Up Thing. The outer diameter is 0.440 inches, the same across all of PolarStar’s lip sizes.
To choose a lip, measure the widest point of your nozzle and pick a lip with an inner diameter just larger than it. This Silver lip is for the JACK and F2. PolarStar offers a different Black 0.285 inch lip for the Fusion Engine and Kythera, and the Hop Up Thing includes a 0.305 inch stock lip for AEG nozzles.
Note that these lips fix nozzle deflection, not misalignment. If your nozzle is misaligned, you will still need to correct that with normal alignment methods. Fitting also means opening up your hop up setup, so it is best for players comfortable with HPA and AEG tuning.
