JV,
I'm not so sure they are all flat.
Regardless of the shape of the "piston"
sooner or later you run into the inherent
limits of the rubber, a very steep rising
rate. From static I get about 5/8--3/4 inch
"bump" travel out of the cans and it takes
a pretty big bump to get that. Cans
have almost flat pistons and the rubbers
are sideways, kinda like dropping a coin
into a slot.
Jay Novak was going to post some
info on rubber compounds he tested but I
guess he never got around to it.
I hesitate to even reply to this because it might
bring up the        issue again.
