Yankee Hill Machine Sidewinder Piston, .40 S&W 14.5x1L

The Yankee Hill Machine Sidewinder Piston in .40 S&W with a 14.5×1 left-hand thread (brand part no. YHM-3235-M) is a booster piston for the Sidewinder suppressor platform, built for .40-caliber pistol hosts threaded to the 14.5x1LH metric pattern. It lets the barrel move independently of the suppressor’s added mass, which keeps a recoil-operated .40-caliber pistol cycling reliably with a can attached. As a wear item, it can be replaced on its own as internal springs and seals age. It ships as a standalone service part, separate from the suppressor tube.
