Doesn't usually harm them if kept dry, but does reduce their velocity often. I also had one freeze shut on me once. I think I'd gotten some sweat into the pin or moisture of some kind as temps dropped. Just bound it up and had to warm with a lighter to get to open. lol

It makes the grease on the spring "harder" and the drag lowers velocity.

Thanks for the info guys. I appreciate it.

If all is working well the denser the air the higher the velocity. Not by much but measureable.
